As others have said  you posted 3 characters instead of one  I suggest you run this little snippet of code to see what s actually in your string   public static void dumpString String text        for  int i 0  i  lt  text length    i                  System out println  U     Integer toString text charAt i   16                                      text charAt i              If you post the results of that  it ll be easier to work out what s going on   I haven t bothered padding the string - we can do that by inspection

Character issues like this are difficult to diagnose because information is easily lost through misinterpretation of characters via application bugs  misconfiguration  cut n paste  etc   As I  and apparently others  see it  you ve pasted three characters   codepoint   glyph   escaped    windows-1252    info                                                                         U 00ef                u00ef     ef              LATIN 1 SUPPLEMENT  LOWERCASE LETTER U 00bf                u00bf     bf              LATIN 1 SUPPLEMENT  OTHER PUNCTUATION U 00bd                u00bd     bd              LATIN 1 SUPPLEMENT  OTHER NUMBER   To identify the character  download and run the program from this page  Paste your character into the text field and select the glyph mode  paste the report into your question  It ll help people identify the problematic character

You are asking to replace the character     but for me that is coming through as three characters            and       This might be your problem    If you are using Java prior to Java 1 5 then you only get the UCS-2 characters  that is only the first 65K UTF-8 characters  Based on other comments  it is most likely that the character that you are looking for is      that is the Unicode replacement character  This is the character that is  used to replace an incoming character whose value is unknown or unrepresentable in Unicode    Actually  looking at the comment from Kathy  the other issue that you might be having is that javac is not interpreting your  java file as UTF-8  assuming that you are writing it in UTF-8  Try using   javac -encoding UTF-8 xx java   Or  modify your source code to do   String replaceAll   uFFFD
