ColdFusion MX: Changed Unicode support: ColdFusion supports the Java UCS-2 representation of Unicode characters, up to a value of 65535. (Earlier releases supported 1-255.)

The values 0 - 31 are standard, nonprintable codes. For example:

• Chr(10) returns a linefeed character
• Chr(13) returns a carriage return character
• The two-character string Chr(13) & Chr(10) returns a Windows newline

Note: For a complete list of the Unicode characters and their codes, see www.unicode.org/charts/.

<!--- If the character string is not empty, then
      output its Chr value --->
<cfif IsDefined("form.charVals")>
      <cfoutput>#form.charVals# = #Chr(form.charVals)#</cfoutput>
</cfif>

<cfform action="#CGI.script_name#" method="POST">
   <p>Type an integer character code from 1 to 65535<br>
      to see its corresponding character.<br>
   <cfinput type="Text" 
      name="CharVals" 
      range="1,65535" 
      message="Please enter an integer from 1 to 65535" 
      validate="integer" 
      required="Yes"
