Gary, Thanks for going through my questions and giving general answers, but they were still pretty generic and hand-waving. In lieu of an actual implementation, could you please go through a couple of real examples, e.g., for any one of Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Hebrew. What does University of Jerusalem Classics Department write as their URL in Hebrew characters? What glyphs get printed (in what order) in the newsletter? What keystrokes get typed to enter them in (in what order)? What does the browser do to turn the keystrokes into a URL? What about Sanyoo depaarto? What do they print as the URL for their food shop? How would someone enter that into a browser? Your design got very fuzzy and turned into a general discussion but what I'm asking for is just a couple of worked out examples. How is this supposed to work, and how does hex-encoded UTF-8 encoded actually help make it work? Regards, Larry -- http://www.parc.xerox.com/masinter
