A question came in about the charset that I'd like to respond to here.
> We migrated a doc to asciidoctor. It contains a horizontal ellipsis, which doesn’t seem to render properly when served from a remote server. Seen this issue before?
> It’s as if Chrome takes the Content-Type, which comes in as iso-1185-1, and uses that instead of the HTML’s <meta charset=“UTF-8”>
In my experience, many browsers will use the charset defined in the Content-Type HTTP header over the charset defined in the document. There doesn't seem to be a way to control the browser behavior from the document in a way that works universally. It's best to have the web server set the charset to UTF-8 (while you're at it, slap anyone who doesn't configure their web server this way).
If anyone has more insight on this topic, esp if I'm saying invalid things, please feel free to chime in.
Cheers,
-Dan
