What is that \265 octal escape?  You use it in the URL below as well:

> => https://humanum.arts.cuhk.edu.hk/Lexis/lexi-mf/search.php?word=µp 
> Multi-function Chinese Character Database

But I cannot use that in my Web browser, and suspect it is some
encoding problem when you composed the message.

We don't have the U+794A character in CTLau-b5.html, neither under
BANG nor in PAANG, which I suppose is why you cannot insert that
character.  If there is an updated version of that file or the
equivalent data somewhere, we could perhaps use it.

Thanks.
