I guess you forgot to output a <meta> tag that defines the content-type of
the page.

Aha! Yes indeed. I was just writing out data quick and dirty for
testing purposes and forgot to write out the headers.  I added Content
Header info and all works fine.

OK, What kind of meta tag should I include?
I have a couple, but not very many meta tags in my files. I try to minimalise
content and maintain HTML 3.2 compatibility for oldr browsers.

What would a content-type meta line look like to get round this
quoting problem? My O'Reilly pocket reference suggests:

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>

Would that suffice?
