Yes, that's fine. That is for the browser to see that the page is in uTF8.
But if "foreign" chars like Hebrew appear in the page we have to make the text 
use a special unicode font which has all the required unicode characters. So 
I wrap the unicode text with a span and set the right font-family there.
Often unicode needs a larger font-size because unicode chars are hard to see 
if it's hebrew or something similair.

Seems so. 
Not sure what happened with the CVS stuff. 
A "cvs update -Pd" in biblenew/delbourne should do the job. To commit your 
changed CSS stuff simply do a cvs commit -m "changes to CSS" in the biblenew/
delbourne/ dir. This will upload the changes to the CVS server so I can get 
them with a "cvs update -Pd".

Thank you for the update.
I will commit the required changes soon.
