RE: 𡁀 coming out as ?

Yuk. You've managed to output a chunk of UTF-16 text into the middle of an
output stream that is otherwise in UTF-8 or iso-8859-1 or something similar.
The two funny characters at the start of the double-spaced portion are a
byte-order mark indicating that UTF-16 text follows. The "OR" is what the
character 21040 looks like when you display the two bytes of the UTF-16
representation as if they were separate ASCII characters.

The diagnosis is easy, but I'll have to leave the solution to someone who
knows how to use ASP pages - I forgot years ago.
