Hi guys, I have a problem with the website.
I've tried every Japanese character encoding I had in Firefox, but the Japanese characters just won't show up. How to fix this? Thanks.

Huh. That seems to work for me. Where do you mean?
And to show that I'm not lying:

Running Firefox 3.0.19 in Ubuntu 8.10. Character Encoding tested with both Western (ISO-8859-1) and Unicode (UTF-8). Maybe you don't have the right font support?
UPDATE: Ah, it's been so long since I've had to do this. If you're running Windows XP (and I believe, 2000, ME, and 98, but it's been so long...), you have to install East Asian Language support from your Windows CD. Here's some instructions: http://newton.uor.edu/Departments&Progr ... on_XP.html
I seem to remember that Windows 7 worked right out of the box; I don't know about Vista though.
