Henry, I captured the traces. The file 'goodone.txt' is the one that was sent by the proxied version, and the file 'badone.txt' is the one sent by the solo version. What is happening is that the proxied version used UTF-8 encoding while the solo version used 8859_1 encoding. When we run the solo version, the entire application is a swf file that is loaded by the tag <object>. It appears that we need to instruct the <object> tag to pass on the encoding (UTF-8) to the swf file. We tried a few possibilities, but none of them work.
Thanks!
