Summarized test results:
Encoding, single-byte preferred labels

Intended audience: users, XHTML/HTML coders (using editors or scripting), script developers (PHP, JSP, etc.), CSS coders, Web project managers, and anyone who wants to know about encodings in current browsers.

Updated

These tests check whether user agents map characters for a given encoding as specified in the Encoding specification.

Note that the snapshot summaries of these test results are for released versions of the browsers tested. Versions that are still in development may provide better support for these features. The tests themselves do not test any vendor prefixes.

results

The tables show results for tests run on the date shown. Above the tables are summaries of the results at that date. The table data may be more up-to-date than the summary. If the tables contain some incorrectly scored tests, or tests that relate to non-released versions of browsers, these are not included in the summary.
