I think this may fix my problem, but I don't understand why I have a problem.

My site has handled Japanese text fine, but now all of it, old text that was previously there (even in the gallery!), and text that is newly input, all of it is mojibake, mucked up. And I do mean all of it, even in the taxonomy descriptions. It can't be drupal specific, since it's like that in the Gallery too.

I think I started noticing it over the past week, but it may have started earlier. It can't have anything to do with my computer, can it? (I recently have had to use an older Win98 computer, but I do use firefox). I can input Japanese into drupal.org OK.

Redoing my database would mean taking my site down... :( Japanese is not a major part of my site, it's mostly for my own reference when I research stuff, but having to redo everything is not appealing.

Anisa.
