ISO/IEC 8859-9

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ISO 8859-9, also known as Latin-5 or "Turkish", is an 8-bit character encoding, part of the ISO 8859 standard. It was designed originally to cover the Turkish language, designed as being of more use than the ISO 8859-3 encoding. It is identical to ISO 8859-1 except for these six replacements of characters mostly used to write the Icelandic language:

Position 0xD0 0xDD 0xDE 0xF0 0xFD 0xFE
8859-9 Ğ İ Ş ğ ı ş
8859-1 Ð Ý Þ ð ý þ

ISO_8859-9:1989, more commonly known by its preferred MIME name of ISO-8859-9, is the IANA charset consisting of this standard used together with the control codes from ISO/IEC 6429 for the C0 (0x00–0x1F) and C1 (0x80–0x9F) parts. Escape sequences (from ISO/IEC 6429 or ISO/IEC 2022) are not to be interpreted. This charset also has the aliases iso-ir-148, ISO_8859-9, latin5, l5 and csISOLatin5.

In the table above, 20 is the regular SPACE character, and A0 is the NO-BREAK SPACE. AD is a SOFT HYPHEN, which should not appear at all in compliant web browsers.

Code values 0x00–0x1F, 0x7F, and 0x80–0x9F are not assigned to characters by ISO/IEC 8859-9.
