ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
It is not possible to enter danish characters (e.g. ?, ? and ?) in a java.awt.TextField when the echo character is set. It works fine without the echo character set. Moreover, it is not possible to type new characters in the text field when a danish character has been entered.

The additional danish characters are ?, ? and ?.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
See the attached test program.

1. compile the applet
2. start the applet using e.g. a browser
3. type something in the text field
4. set the echo character, try to type in a danish character
5. when one danish character has been entered is not possible to enter any more characters

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
That is should be possible to enter danish characters in a TextField with the echo character set.
ACTUAL -
Once a danish character has been entered, it is not possible to enter more characters (even if these are english).

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.Button;
import java.awt.TextField;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;

public class DanishChar extends Applet implements ActionListener
{
private TextField ivTf;
private Button ivBtn;

public void init()
{
super.init();

ivTf = new TextField("", 25);
add(ivTf);

ivBtn = new Button("Toggle echo");
ivBtn.addActionListener(this);
add(ivBtn);

setSize(300, 100);
}

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent pAe)
{
if (ivTf.echoCharIsSet()) {
ivTf.setEchoChar((char)0);
}
else {
ivTf.setEchoChar('*');
}
ivTf.setText(ivTf.getText());
}
}
