What's the difference between the File Encoding in the Project Settings and the CharSet in the Project Properties?

File Encoding sets the encoding of the code files (programs). This allows users to include special/international characters in their programs. Additionally, users can change the encoding to convert their program from one encoding to another. This feature was recently added when preparing CCS for Japanese release.

Charset is "used to specify the name of the character set (for example, ISO-LATIN-7) appended to the Content-Type header of the corresponding object." It is a part of the HTML, used by Web browsers to output the text using the correct character set.

Actually, both these features may need to be finalized or modified in the next major version of CCS, when we plan to implement the full support for multi-language Websites.

I have both 'site language' and 'file encoding' set to other than deault settings: site: polish, encoding: ISO-8859-2), but CCS doesn't generate proper meta tags in html header! it generates nothing there!

This is OK. The ASP programs set the Charset and send appropriate command directly to the browser, therefore there is no need to put it in HTML.

I use CCS2.3 under win98, Code Language in Project Setting was set to "JSP".
I have both 'site language' and 'file encoding' set to other than deault settings: site: english, encoding: simply chinese GB2312), but CCS doesn't generate proper meta tags in html header! it generates "charset=chinese" there! which caused compile error for that "chinese" is not the right encoding type ,the right one should be "GB2312".
Would you please give me any advice on how to config the win98 default system encoding?
