Character Entities
How do I stop CSE HTML Validator from changing UTF-8 characters into character entities like 'ø' with the 'Format and fix HTML' option?

Hello,
I think this is mostly due to inadequate UTF-8 support in v8.0. I suspect that HTML Tidy is converting it to a character reference because it is not outputting UTF-8. v9.0 should improve this. Would you be willing to test the next v9.0 BETA to see if it fixes the problem? Thank you.

Thanks. I've sent you a private message.Baretull wrote:I have no experience with CSE HTML Validator, as I've just downloaded a trial and ran smack into the UTF-8 issue... But I'd give it a try, sure.

This should be fixed in v8.9911. Please try it and let me know as soon as this version is available (should be soon). Thanks for reporting this issue.
