I made two small fixes, and it seems to work now.

Thanks. Everything is working, except that I use ISO-8859-1 and some pages don't display accents anymore. An example is http://vascoexpresso.net/

I don't think I tested it with 9j, but it works with dev.9.

9j/9k look at this line

        <?xml-stylesheet href="/ve.css" type="text/css"?>

and because it's saying that it's xml without specifying a charset, assumes it's UTF-8. (Someone is sure to point out a third case which lets it be "unknown", but that's the way I understood the standards in this area). However, I see the following

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

so I agree there's a conflict to be resolved.

That's this item:

* parse xml processing-instruction to turn on UTF-8 decoding, as well as
  disable upper/lower case transforming in source view -TD
