Ok, there is/was an issue with html-kit not showing Japanese characters properly but 
they are *still* Japanese. Anyway,...

Maybe. But since I haven't used html-kit that much, and I don't really know how it 
saves the files, most probably it saves it shift_jis (sjis) so it worked when you used 
header().

Then, most likely, the correct charset wasn't properly defined inside the <head> tags.

Great! but choosing the default font for phpedit is bit tricky. You won't "see" the 
names of the Japanese fonts inside the drop-down menu as they appear as blank lines or 
with an "@" sign in front. Just do a trial-and-error and soon you'll find one that 
works.

And oh btw, there's Quanta for Windows available at thekompany.com. You have to pay 
for it though... But not much ;)
