First, what is the charset you use in the DB?

If you're using Chinese as the BE language then it is Big5. The same is 
true if you set forceCharset=big5 - but it'll be big5 for *ALL* BE 
languages.

Second, did you ever set the FE page charset?

In 3.6 (and 3.5) you can set the sent HTML with config.metaCharset=big5. 
You don't have to set the charset in Apache, and I don't recommend your 
practice. Consider also setting the locale with config.locale_all=zh_CH 
(or whatever suits you). It's ok to set both forceCharset and metaCharset.

Third, I have to admit my knowledge with grahic menus is not the best.

I don't know where and how the graphic routines get the charset. I hope 
that setting the charset and locale solves your problem.
