Japanese Authoring Web App
Em Tonkin

A rather inexplicable web application designed to help one write Japanese online. It was basically written in order to allow me to get my homework done on any unicode-capable browser, which might strike some as overkill. Warning: to use this app you will require a functional unicode font. I suggest arieluni.ttf, which I am unable to distribute for copyright reasons but which Microsoft has offered for some time now and is certainly available elsewhere.

Test: Hiragana web app

More about this app:

The application has several input modes and a save/load procedure. One can insert text by directly clicking on hiragana or katakana symbols or by typing syllables directly into a romanji input box. It also knows some kanji, which one can access by, for example, typing "east" into the input box.
