I'm having no luck finding the answer to this one. I thought perhaps one of you folk might know.

I'm writing a module for PHP-Nuke, and I need to display blocks of text containing IBM extended characters. PHP-Nuke sets the character set of the entire page according to the user's language setting, so I can't change that. Using the terminal font isn't doing it. Is there a way to specify a character set in a style or something?

update: using iconv doesn't work, either. as soon as it hits the extended characters it barfs. argh! everything would be dandy if I could just change the coding of the entire page to ibm850. blah.
