/**
* Get a cross platform HTML string resource by ID.
*
* This function makes localization easier for cross platform strings used
* for generating HTML. The cross platfrom string resources are defined in
* allxpstr.h. You should use XP_GetStringForHTML when:
* <OL>
* <LI>Human readable string not defined in front-end
* <LI>The code generates HTML page and will go into HTML window
* <LI>Only use this when the message will be generated into HTML.
* <LI>Only use this if you can access to the winCharSetID.
* <LI>This is needed because half of the text is generated from resource
* (in resource charset) and half of the text is coming from the net
* (in winCharSetID charset). When we meet this kind of mixing charset
* condition. We use this function instead of XP_GetString().
* </OL>
*
* The code checks the current CharSetID in the resource and the
* CharSetID of the data from the net. If they are equal, it returns the
* string defined in the resource, otherwise, it will return the English
* version. So a French client can display French if the data from the
* net is in the CharSetID of French and it will use half English and half
* Japanese if the French client receives Japanese data from the net.
*
* The caller should make a copy of the returned string if it needs to use
* it for a while. The same memory buffer will be used to store
* another string the next time this function get called. The caller
* does not need to free the memory of the returned string.
*
* @param id Specifies the string resource ID
* @param winCharSetID Specifies the winCharSetID of the HTML
* @param english Specifies the English string
* @return Localized (translated) string if the winCharSetID
* matches the CharSetID of the resource. Otherwise it
* returns the English message or the English string
* @see XP_GetStringForHTML
* @see INTL_ResourceCharSet
