Can't input Japanese characters into BrowserBasedHelp search

[Guest]

We're using RH 8.0.2.208 to create BrowserBasedHelp output for a client-side application. We have a different project for each language. In the Japanese language output, a user cannot enter Japanese characters into the search field using the Japanese keyboard; when you press the keys, nothing displays in the search field, but you CAN copy and paste Japanese characters into the search field and find results.

The Project Settings: Language setting is set to Japanese (Japan), and the properties in the generated HTML topic files are also set for Japanese.

Has anyone run into this before? I've searched and found a few topics with similar problems, but didn't see any replies or answers.
