Thanks Martin ... and congratulations on starting and inspiring the Moodle community. Power to the (good) people!
Thanks also Robert.
I will use the <span lang="... tags.
Yes, I have the Multilanguage filter enabled, but it still doesn't work, I guess due to the '-all' filter issue mentioned by Robert. Is the '-all' filter likely to change in standard Moodle?
Yes, I did find the wiki a bit confusing on this, so to be complete ... Should the format be lang="ru_utf8" or lang="ru" now (version 1.6) in the span tag?
Regards,
Howard
