[BNM] HTML in Bengali/Urdu/Yiddish and Turkish...

[Alex]

Utf-8 does include the Bengali character set. Make sure dw and the 
browser you're testing in is set to utf-8 and that you set the http header

Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

because the default for HTTP 1.1 is  ISO-8859-1 (which doesn't have 
Bengali characters)

Hope that helps,
