Ok, so there are two types of 'smiley's there is an actual smiley character in the one of the unicode character sets, but that is not ascii because it is unicode.
then there are the markups: things like :) or :( or :P which are really just two characters that interpreted in a different way, like if you SMS the two characts ":)" you get the android happy face (in android) and a 'regular' happy face in MS communicator, for example. Those two applications render the character sequence differently, then, let's say a text editor. So if you want to send ":)" via HTTP post you will need to send those two characters as two characters in the POST params, properly escaped of course, since ":" has a special meaning. Does that help? See how this has NOTHING to do with Android?
