Aloha Phil, yes, has been for a while now (I believe since 7- 
something). I've done some databases with the Hawaiian language  
keyboard that ships with OS X, and works well.

I've had a terrible time with FMP for serving web dabases since it  
first shipped with the web plugin and the CDML markup language (about  
FMP 3 or 4). It's much easier to develop databases that can be served  
via the web than it used to be, but I the server does seem to go deaf  
(i.e., not respond to web requests) even under a moderate load. I was  
told that FMP no longer uses that web plugin architecture and that  
the web server capability was completely re-written, but the behavior  
is exactly the same as I experienced previously.

If you use access it over the web with FMP application itself it  
works great, but not with a web browser. At least my personal  
experience ;-)
