Quoted speech

[Davis, David]

Theresa,
There should be no problem with those characters in HTML, so long as you put the correct declarations in the Header part of the page (to declare what character set you are using). If you look at a Japanese, Korean or Chinese site, for instance, you'll generally see they manage to have a plenty of non-ASCII characters in them ;)
Alternatively, you can put & escape sequences in your HTML for those characters.
You can check your HTML is correct using a validator such as http://validator.w3.org

Actually, Z, I want to replace the curly apostrophes with straight
apostrophes, and curly "smart" brackets with straight brackets, because
I believe that these "magic" characters will blow up in epub, html, or
web pages.

Are you suggesting that they won't? I'm new to producting epub but not
web pages which don't seem to like accented characters.

Thanks,
Theresa
