This is NOT a Python bug. > I still don't > understand why python didn't merge unicode and strings. Because you cannot add a string to a unicode object. If you do this without specifying an encoding, it usually reveals a bug in you code. Whithout specifying an encoding, which should be used to convert the string to a unicode object, Python uses ASCII as default encoding. It is important to understand this, otherwise it is likely that a program works just "by accident" and will fail under different input. Read http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html Then google for Python and unicode. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
