Sorry for hijacking this thread, but for me this raises an interesting
question.
My E-Mail client (Entourage) displays the Japanese characters correctly (at
least I think so :)) So I thought I'd try this out: copy the code snippet,
paste it into a button. But I cant' get the Japanese to appear correctly.
The same when I paste just the Japanese characters into an EditField. All I
get are a few (European) characters (hope they come through): "Ç…ÇŸÇÒÇ≤".
I'm a complete newbie when it comes to foreign character sets (and don't
speak/read a single word of Japanese), so I'd like to know why it doesn't
work. At first I thought Entourage was mixing things up, but I am able to
paste the correct characters into a new E-Mail message.
Can anybody enlighten me? Is this a font issue, or a charset thing?
Thanks,
Frank+++
