Problem with linktext and html characters

[Richmond Mathewson]

if I do:

put (numToChar(363))

I get a 'k'

however this:

on mouseUp
  set the useUnicode to true
  set the unicodeText of fld "f2" to (numToChar(363))
end mouseUp

gives the 'u' with the diacritic.

if you put this in your first field:

<a href="gojūon">gojūon</a>

everything works as long as your textFont in your second field
is a unicode font.

Seems you were over-complicating things a bit.
