Two questions:

How do I view Japanese characters, what do I need to download using IE 5.5?

How do encode my pages so that browsers display them with Japanese characters?

Thanks

set the charset to ISO-2022-JP-2, if you browse the site with msie
normally a msgbox should appear telling you that you need to
download / install from cd the packet for the foreign characters

If you want to see Japanese on your machine, and you've got Windows, get the Microsoft Global Input Method Editors [microsoft.com] (IMEs) and you'll be able to see and input several Asian languages. The newer your OS and software the better the language support is. Windows XP and Office XP are miles ahead of Windows 95 and earlier versions Office.

This is probably overkill, but I add this to Japanese sites I make and it works.
