As I said in my starting message Mozilla copes with everything, both UTF8
and NCR, over the whole CJK range.
However Opera (in my experience) cannot do Ext B in either UTF8 or NCR.
IE6 cannot cope with Ext A in UTF8, but will do so in NCR.
I attach two short files (produced by Hanfind) that include both extensions,
one in UTF8 and the other NCR (except that characters given within the text
are all NCR).

BabelPad is great, but it chokes in converting all the UTF8 in unihan.txt to
NCR at one
go. I wrote a dedicated program to do that.
