Dear Bhante Pesala, June, Lennart, Clay, Walter and friends,

June: you have asked a difficult question. :-) The display of
characters on the screen depends very much on many factors, including
the (version of) operating system, (the version of) browser program
and the original encoding technique. Google does not change any of
your text. So, a match will depend on whether what the user input
matches with your text. If there is a match, the links will be
displayed together with a sampling of your page. As Walter suggested,
usually people will simply click on the link and check out the page.

There's been plenty of discussion of Unicode, and I think we are
heading in that direction. This is the result of years of
collaboration, technological advancement and the internet culture.
It's only a matter of time our mobile phones (and digital watches)
can display Unicode characters. So, I'd advise you consider using
Unicode for your site. Here is another thread of discussion:

You may like to use the Javascript Alex provided on his site, which I
think is a cool idea.

metta,
Yong Peng.
