Hi all, 

Am facing a problem in dsplaying currency symbols.
Here's a sample jsp page....

- 8< ------------------------------------
<html><head><title>Testing</title></head>
<body>

<%  java.text.NumberFormat nf1 = 
java.text.NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(java.util.Locale.JAPAN);
%>

Price = <%=nf1.format(1234)%>
Japanese yen symbol =<%='\u00A5'%>

</body></head>
-- 8< -------------------------------------

and the result is as such

Price = �1,234 Japanese yen symbol =� 

Can anyone explain why the � symbol is not shown when
using the numberformat to display the price. Or is
there something I've missed out in that case pls tell
me the same.

Actually this is just one example, i will need to
display other currency symbols as well depending on
the locale. 

btw am using jdk version 1.3.1.
