Web to Email Server Test Page 2

In ISO-8859-1, code positions 128-159 are supposed to be control characters. However, MS Windows applications use some of that range for printing characters. They are invalid in web pages, but appear frequently. In general, Windows users can see them, but other people cannot. They should be represented by entity references, or by numeric references in the Unicode range.

When viewed as a normal web page, what you see here depends on your operating system, your browser, and what fonts you have installed. The display of the invalid sections may be unpredictable. Pages reformatted by web-to-email software may look quite different.
