hi allz.
I wrote a little page that converts normal letters into ...
yes, morse code. Don't ask me why I just thought I should do so.
I solved that problem by using two arrays (one is latin letters the
second is morse code. they have the same length and e in lain would be . in morse)
and checked the charAt(a position of the string) with all characters in the
latin-array to find its position and added the the code which has the same position
but in the morse array. At the end, the morsed sentence is put out.
It was easy to do so but, hmm, I could imagine that by finding the
ASCII value of the characters it would be even easier.
So, can you tell me how to find the ASCII value of characters??? puh-lea-zah!

here is that page I was talking about if you want to have a look at it:

to get ascii value, use this function:

charCodeAt(index)--Returns a number representing an ISO-Latin-1 codeset value at the instant index. (Netscape Navigator 4.0 and above only.)

Interesting. Why would UBB do that? It must use &#0124; &#0124; somehow very importantly in its code, so that it would be dangerous to let someone have it in a post. Hmmm...
