testing things...

これは　日本の　コンピューター　私は　日本人です。


edit: Wow, I'm surprised it actually worked.

What exactly were you testing? Whether you could post japanese, or whether you could copy paste it, or?

whether, when I typed Japanese font, it would show up in the actual post.

I tried it on another forum, it showede up as a bunch of letters and numbers separated at regular intervals by colons. Something like this:

ひらがな

カタカナ

so I was just wondering if it would work here. No copy & paste.


edit: oops, when I copy-pasted from the other forum, this forum converted it back to Japanese Yay! :P

Well, the forum you tried it in had wrong character encoding selected to show japanese (and probably cyrillic, arabic etc etc) fonts. You could inform them to switch to an encoding that supports japanese if you want. :)

Nah, it's OK. When will I ever use Japanese on a forum anyway? ;)

I was just having fun in the test area. :p

LOL, me too. I can see the Japanese perfectly. (Opera 8.51 in WinXP SP2.)

Hehe, actually it's cool when a forum has the right encoding ; not only because you can use "exotic" alphabets, but also because you can use unusual symbols like ™ (alt+0153), © (alt+184), ® (alt+169), ♥ (alt+3), ¬ (alt+9898) etc... knowing they will actually show up on people's screen. :)

Yup. I use ™ surprisingly often.

That ™ symbol is sooooo L33t. :shades:
As for the ¬ symbol, it may look useless but it's actually useful for this : (¬_¬);

I can't use those alt+xxx combinations anymore. Suddenly they act as hotkeys. Weird. alt+5 for example takes me to the FAQ, alt+3 is a shortcut for the lightload version of the forums. Strange.

It must be the browser you're using... ? :\

Yeah. I think there used to be a bug in firefox that made the vbulletin accesskeys not to work, but I guess it has been fixed. I'm using 1501 btw. It turns out there isn't a simple about:config way to even turn them of, but I was able to find a greasemonkey script that disables them, so now all is well. :D
