Howdy

I have a somewhat strange request. I'm looking for a module that will take a double-byte character (Japanese UTF8 or EUC in this case) and not necessarily convert it to iso-8859-1, but actually give me the corresponding code for that character in iso-8859-1.

This list I found below gives me hiragana and katakana, but that's not going to take me very far: http://papie2.hp.infoseek.co.jp/tokusyumoji.html#%E7%AC%AC%E4%B8%80%E8%A1%A8

I tried the Encode module, but it didn't give me what I wanted. There was a site ages ago called kanjiworld.com that had relevant info (all codes for all charsets, actually) but it is gone, unfortunately.

I can live w/ a table, but a mode would of course, be primo.

cheers.
