Re: char(4) not replaceable?

Unicode? could be... frankly I'm getting out of my depth now on character encodings and feel like going to school on this one to get up to speed. All kinds of wierdness now like characters pasted from Indesign turning into Osaka on OSX and also when pasted into REV ( and BBEdit too...) but then if you query for what the ascii is you get something that should be a regular character in the font that is set for the field...

I run TIDY on an BBEdit HTML file and Tidy goes nuts. If I just change the config to output UTF-8 instead of UTF-16, then it will process the file just fine... complete mystery... another html file, looks almost exactly the same, will process out under UTF-16, no problem... I don't see the diff between the two files...

I'm drowning ... ;-)

any pointers on how best to come to grips with this new animal?

Unicode, UTF-8, UTF-16, ISO-8899 et al

all greek to me...though i have a general idea that there are some 65,000 plus "spots" on a number series, each reserved for a character in some language which no one else can use... but daily it seems we need to understand this thoroughly. Any training videos, tutorials, someone who we can hire to fly to Hawaii?

This seems to work here. (OS X)

Unicode?
