Characters that are not unicode?

[pctechtv <ch...@pctechtv.com>]

How do you make a text area in Flex accept double byte (for example) Chinese
characters. Would this be handled by the host computer and Flex/Flash not
have much to do with it. I am new to Flex but used to Flash and I think in
Flash you have to include the characters? Correct? What are other important
things to know.

Not sure what you mean by “accept”.  From clipboard, or by typing?  I’m
definitely not an expert on this topic, but I think Flash strings are all
unicode.  I’m not sure what happens when you cut and paste but when typing
it is building up a unicode string which if you want it to be double-byte,
needs to be converted at some point, maybe on the server.
