Ok, back after my second morning coffee :) A better way to check for Chinese code points would be something like that (not tested and never used myself) : function testForChinese utf8Text return matchText( utf8Text, "\p{Han}") end testForChinese Of course, it won't work with htmlText, but straight with the text of a field, assuming it's coded in UTF8 !!!
