You'll need to be more specific because the answers depend...

- What wallet software are you talking about?
- When you say encoding, do you actually mean encryption?

Thanks for the response. I meant the original bitcoin wallet client. Also, I did mean encoding, I.e. how IA the passphrase encoded, utf-8 etc.

I have a few questions regarding the details on bitcoin wallet encryption for the original bitcoin wallet.

1) what encoding standard is used for the passphrase? By this I mean how is the text entered encoded i.e. utf-8 etc.
2) is there a way to manually check the decryption of a wallet without submitting requests to the server?
