Internet and Regional Text Encoding Names

The Internet has its own set of encoding names, defined in the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) registry, that identify text encodings for HTML, Web text, and Internet mail. The Text Encoding Converter uses numeric text encoding specifications. However, the Text Encoding Converter provides functions that let you translate between text encoding specifications and Internet name strings. In addition, the Text Encoding Converter also supplies functions that return a list of text encodings used for a particular language and geographic region.
