Hello Mike and everybody! >> MA> "System.out.println("\u2261");" >> >> Hmmm.. Looks the System.out writer is set up to smth like ISO-8859-1, >> so will this work?
MA> "System.out" is a PrintStream so it depends on the default encoding. MA> ... MA> If your platform default encoding is ISO-8859-1, than indeed MA> "System.out.println("\u2261");" isn't going to output, as its not in the MA> Unicode to ISO mappings -- http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/ISO8859/8859-1.TXT Thanks for clearing this out! >>> Maybe doing ࣕ would be better in a general setting? Well, i was speaking about doing out.write("ࣕ") in a _servlet_. I beleive that if we do it, we'll get the ࣕ sequence output directly to the html page and the browser may recognize this as a HTML encoding of a unicode character. This is a reasonable option even if we have ISO-8859-1 as our page encoding. MA> If you do this through a "System.out.write(ࣕ)", it might be MA> interpretted as a byte instead of a character... Well, i beleive that if we really do 'System.out.write("ࣕ");' we'll get "ࣕ" on our system console, but this quite useless, isn't it? Sure it won't "be interpreted as a byte".
