Well, it was originally in Unicode (that's the native format of Tcl and
thus, my parser) which is what caused all these problems in the first place.
Of course, it was my mistake, since I wasn't letting the browsers know that
it was Unicode I was putting out. (I didn't even know until you brought it
to my attention.) However, I don't think all that many web browsers support
Unicode (but I could be mistaken). If you'd really like it, I could make it
a preference to choose whether you'd like output in Unicode or ISO Latin-1.

Any thoughts on the site itself?
