Reading and writing to a URL connection, thanks to Java.

If you have ever written a website or java application where people paste stuff in from Word, you are likely to have hit the problem of Word using high ascii chars for "open quotes", "close quotes", reg symbol, etc...

This java class (with a single static method) can replace the most prevalent of these with normal ascii values

Hope it helps someone...
