[thelist] foreign characters

Hi List,

I am working on a site for a non-profit that wants to post HTML versions of
their conference materials online. They have several international
conferences each year and many of the presentations are provided in both
English and Russian (and some other languages too.)

The site will have an agenda page that lists all of the events for one
conference. There will be hyperlinks to the presentations; some will link to
the HTML version in English, some in Russian. People in the US and Russia
will need to be able to view the agenda page, as well as the presentations
in both languages.

They are providing me all of the content in both languages, but I am having
problems with the character sets (many of the foreign characters aren't part
of our standard charset=iso-8859-1)

Is there any good way to handle this?

Thanks!
Emily
