Does this require any special settings on the > server side or client side. Jabber uses unicode to represent all characters, so supporting other languages is just a matter of being able to display those characters. The traffic is sent between the client and server as UTF-8, which is a variable length multi-byte encoding. For US7ASCII characters, characters are sent unmodified to the server and back. For characters beyond this (e.g. "�"), extra characters are used (this particular one would be represented using two characters) . So the garbage may actually be these multi-byte characters, not being handled correctly by the client. -David Waite _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
