hello there,
ive been introduced to php_java.dll just recently and had it sucessfully call my java function. but i have a problem with the parameters it passes to the java method. apparently, there is no problem if the data is in normal text or numbers. however, if i try to pass a string in japanese characters it would read it as garbage characters(boxes)..is there any way i could resolve this? i really need to get the string in japanese characters also.. is there something like character-encoding that i need t set?

i hope somebody could help me with my this...
