I've been using "x-sjis", which works for Nescape/Explorer 4, and Netscape
3 I think. It's very important to have this (or the euc one) for people
using Japanese extensions to Explorer/Netscape on English Windows.

The file Craig gave the URL for mentioned Chinese in four places, but none
of them had anything I recognized. I've got two sets of chinese pages. One
is "simplfied" (for mainland China) and the other is "traditional" (for
Taiwan and Hong Kong). I asked the people who made them but they don't know
what I'm talking about. I think they were created on a Chinese Windows
system. Anyone want to make a guess what the correct meta tags are?
