Title: Chinese characters in Java Applet
Hello,
I am trying to to display chinese characters stored in Unicode format in oracle database through a Java applet in the browser. The applet uses JDBC calls and thin driver.
The oracle resides on Sun Solaris server . But the applet is not

Now suppose we have a character sequence beginning with U+FEFF U+0020.
This would be encoded as follows:

These characters are purely coded for compatibility. Unicode does not distinguish
letters by the abbreviations that they happen to be used in. There is no difference in
semantics between the "g" in "go" vs. the "g" in "12g", nor between the "Å" in "Århus"
vs. the "Å" in "15Å", nor -- for that

*If* that's the solution, it should be done yesterday. The longer it takes the
more implementations (and data) there will be that needs to be changed.
