1. Why do you think the standard pages work fine?
Do you have a meta tag defining the charset? Most likely that wouldn't be present in an AJAX call but would tell the browser the correct charset.
2. What about the issue I'm having sending the data? How do I get the UTF-8 text to be recorded properly when submitted via an AJAX call?
I believe jQuery sends the data as UTF-8; the issue as I understand it is when you want to send something other than UTF-8, as per this thread: <http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-en/browse_thread/thread/5fc0bd4e73d41e03/#anchor_94c6c9cd173ae26d> You said you're using Japanese characters, are you sure you're using UTF-8 or could you be using SHIFT_JIS? Do you have an example page? - Bil
