Hmm, that is something to think about. We are using Oracle running on a Sun Solaris Server. The Perl implementation on it is 5.6 but I do not think it is Apache Mod_Perl. However, any hint that might help me solve this issue is welcome. I will look into it. I am also thinking that the ISO-2022-JP code could be damaged as happens from browser so we are applying the text cleaning techniques from Ken Lunde's excellent book.

The question is not clear. I apologize. I am trying to to find out how to make sure I get good output file from the database that if I bring up in Japanese Word, or some Japanese text editor, will come up in Japanese. Only the browser is consistent with this. I did apply all the help from my previous question and that allowed me to get the raw UTF-8 data from the database, but it is not viewable as Kanji characters unless I put into web browser. The data is not the HTTP unicode #& format though so I know this is not issue.

I hope that clears up some. And thank you very much for your response. :-)
