Re:JavaScript’s internal character encoding: UCS-2 or UTF-16? by TheoLib on Friday January 20, 2012 @12:19PM (#3490224)
Why is UTF-8 not an encoding for Unicode?

From the Unicode website (http://www.unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#UTF8): "UTF-8 is the byte-oriented encoding form of Unicode."

From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8): "UTF-8 (UCS Transformation Format — 8-bit[1]) is a variable-width encoding that can represent every character in the Unicode character set."
