Japanese character input.

Question

I want to save the Japanese character input from html forms into the Oracle Database
using the euc character set. Most of the users use Windows PC, so I guess most
of the input would be using s-jis or MS932.
Do I need to write the character code conversion methods from s-jis and/or MS932
to euc and vice versa or does the weblogic server do the conversion internally
Thanks.

Sanjay.
You can do that by specifying EUC-JP for input-charset element of
weblogic.xml. See the following link for more detail.
http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61///////webapp/weblogic_xml.html#1031571
For Oracle to work with EUC charset, you need to set the environment
variable of NLS_LANG=japanese_japan.JA16EUC. You don't need to write the
code conversion method.
Hope this helps,
