One more thing for ADP's. When switching to nsd8x, I had to solve
the ISO8859-2 vs Unicode encoding problem. I couldn't make AOLServer
output the correct charset when processing adp requests and it is
not only my problem.

I circumnavigated it by using the [ad_parse_template] function -
though as I had had to use the ns_startcontent command, I changed
the -file to -string switch in ns_adp_parse and immediately got
rewarded with 'fancy' adp-parser not working.

The ADP's are a fine thing, though they pose some problems when
using different encodings.
