in thread iso-8859-1 code converter

It's not clear to me from your example what data you have got and what you would like to convert. If I unserstand you right, you already have as input data:

  1. The search link
  2. The Japanese name of the game (任天堂), as a sequence of unicode code points (20219, 22825, 22530)
  3. The English translation of this name (Nintendo)
Given this data, what is the result you would like to have?

    I only have the Japanese (and thus, the Unicode and/or EUC-JP encoding). I don't have the English. I was just giving that one as an example. I will get() a page from the search link, but I can't pass it a JPN-friendly encoding (ironically).

      I don't have the English

      Beg your pardon???? Does this mean that, given a string of Kanji (the Japanese word of the game, 任天堂), you would like a transliteration into English alphabet?????????? In this case, you need a Kanji dictionary (and you also will have to decide which transliteration style you choose). Or did I misundertand you here completely?
