Now, let's make sure we have a clear background:
1) japanese chars come in three flavours:
a) ISO-2022-JP (the one you are using yourself)
b) SHIFT-JIS
c) EUC-JP
2) your database setting requires you input in c) style while
you present it values in a) style.
if all that describes your problem you have two ways out of it, which I
cannot evaluate myself (no personal knowledge of the differences among
the three charsets).
*Database configuration* if possible, turn your Postgres configuration
into one that will all three charsets (this will leave you with mixed
input, though, and it will kill your chances to do a search in your db
later)
*charset forcing* have your input page always delivered in standard
format, that is, just one charset. This will free you from charset
trouble when doing the query, but might end up in having all of your
forms showing out with a different charset, if your site uses mixed
charset output.
I usually use the charset approach, because russian all flavours contain
the same set of characters, it's just a different way of coding them.
But this solution is not so painless when ported to charset that might
be "simplified" (like chinese) or not. AFAIK Japanese should be a
syllabic alphabeth, so probably you can do that just as I can.
If you need to have your pages using a given charset (that is, you have
legacy docs coming in one flavour but your forms need another) you can
simply SPAN your page sections into different charset areas.
that is <SPAN charset="yourset" lang="yourlang"> your text </SPAN>
Mind you, this is handy *and* dangerous. In russian the two SPANned
sections will look exactly the same, while actually being different. So
people might end-up cut-and-pasting data from CP-1251 to KOI-8. Not sure
whether browsers will convert that themselves on the fly. You better
check it out.
