Native code Web applications can be used with any WWW browser. However, Unicode Web applications can only be used with a WWW browser that supports Unicode. Note that old WWW browsers in particular do not typically support Unicode. Also, the latest WWW browsers support Unicode at various levels. When Unicode is used in a NetCOBOL Web subroutine, the WWW browser must be able to do the following:
Display the UTF-8 or UCS-2 HTML document correctly, and
Transmit the Web parameter that is transmitted from a WWW browser using UTF-8.
