Yes, I do not know how to handle the extended ASCII characters, and I hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. As I said earlier, I use Net::OAI::Harvester to... harvest the data. I use MyLibrary to save the data to a MySQL database. I then write reports against the database in the form of a simple XML stream and feed the stream to swish-e for indexing. I know swish-e is unable to index multi-byte characters, and search results come directly from swish-e, not MyLibrary. Maybe I should draw search results from MyLibrary and not swish-e to display characters correctly? If I draw content from many global sources, then how do I know what character set to use for display? -- Eric "Really Feeling Like The 'Ugly American'" Morgan
