On ColdFusion, never... :) it should never have \uXXXX in it if you're using ColdFusion. Java ResourceBundles work that way because the spec for Java says that the file has to be ASCII text, so the \uXXXX sequence is their way of escaping unicode characters (which is then used by the Java classes for handling resource bundles). But because ColdFusion has no such (silly) restriction, we simply create our resource bundles using UTF-8 files where there's no need for the \uXXXX syntax (which only exists with Java to allow the file to be stored in ASCII format). > I guess this is where I get screwed up.

If you really needed to use ASCII formatted resource bundles, you could loop over the string and replace each instance with its unicode equivalent, but that's going to produce lots of extra and unnecessary overhead for other languages. Iirc Paul provided a couple different resource bundle packages on the developer's exchange. One that uses java resource bundles (which is more academic or for accessing existing resources) and one for pure ColdFusion, which is the one you want for any new CF project. If you're using the java version, stop. Please.
