[FX.php List] Problem with text formatting

[Bob Patin]

After spending 27 hours on a project for a firm that does Japanese  
translation work, they're now telling me that they're unable to use  
the UTF-8 encoding that I used on all their forms.

According to my client, if we use UTF-8 on the forms, they'll not  
show properly on some Windows machines. Is this true?

I'm using this tag:

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

My client wants to use:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;  
charset=Shift_JIS" />

When I try to use his META tag, the forms don't process, and I get a  
958 error (I think that was the #).

Has anyone had any experience with this? I'm now worried that they're  
going to stiff me on almost $2000 outstanding, so this is a serious  
situation.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
