Hmm, now you need to figure out what the differences are.

I noticed that your original post had characters outside of the basic 7 
bit ascii character set. Is it possible that you are comparing characters 
in different encodings?

For example if 'jim' contains any of these characters, and 'jim' in your 
program code is in utf-8, but 'jim' in your string is in some other 
character set, then the representations of the non ascii characters might 
be different even though they look the same.
