I am not quite sure which developer program you have used - Java? There must be a situation where you use something like UTF8, - it already seems that 'funny letters' are treated as two byte combinations, so maybe it is just a question of how those letters are presented, not the way they are stored. But I have never programmed in Java, so I can't really help you.

Java natively supports UTF-16. It must be an issue with the output.

I contemplated a switch to UTF-16 but was afraid of the many frustrating hours of work it would take. And it did!

Switch even one page to UTF-16 and all hell breaks loose, especially for formatting, style sheets, etc. It was a real mess. In the end, I determined I needed just one UTF-16 page to transfer the words from the webpage to the internal Java program. All the other pages are still in UTF-8, and are totally unchanged. That means I have one extra transition page that simply says >> Continue <<.

As a result, lots of languages seem to be supported. I tested it on French, German, Chinese, Russian and Greek. To my layman's knowledge, all appeared to work fine. Any feedback on what works and what doesn't work would be appreciated. However, I'm not about to rush out and make a lot more changes any time soon.
