Using jdk 1.5.0 , it appear that when the customer does a string input
 read from a file say shift_jis.htm encoding
 eg
 java.io.BufferedReader br = new java.io.BufferedReader ( new
 java.io.InputStreamReader ( new java.io.FileInputStream
 ("/export/home/chphua/sunone/ias/sjas8.1ee/nodeagents/puffer/DefaultGC/applications/j2ee-apps/app1/app1_war/shift_jis.htm"),
 "shift_jis" ) );
             String nextLine = br.readLine ();
      StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
             while ( nextLine != null )
             {
               buf.append(nextLine);
                nextLine = br.readLine ();
             }
 
 the output is corrupt. ( see result.gif )
