This sounds like a character set mis-match. I am wondering what character set the user is using and which OS.
If the user is using Netscape to enter their data, then I am assuming they are using an OS that supports the hira/kata/kanji character sets. What do they have their OS set to, from a character set perspective?
I think I would start there....

hello,
I'm new to this mailing list and am having trouble with mySQL and japanese characters.
I have a web form in Netscape that the user enters japanese text (hiraghani). the data is posted to a dbinsert.jsp page. the problem is that somewhere along the line the character set transforms into half-width katakana (usually a language used for non-japanese origin words - i.e English or Computer).
I am using JSP and Tomcat with Apache on Mac OSX. I've tried setting the charset to Shift-JIS, JIS, ujis, AutoDetect & EUC but with no results. JIS is the most stable.
Can anybody help
Thanks
