  Log:
  Character encoding UTF-8 needed for the whole LON-CAPA system
  Revoke changes rev. 1.33 and rev. 1.34
  (Set browser to ISO-8859-1 encoding, if client OS is MS Windows and browser type is Internet Explorer)
  
  Current tests can _not_ confirm a difference

  Windows 2000 SP4 and MSIE 6.0 / Windows XP Prof. SP3 and MSIE 7.0)
