Subject: Jōyō Kanji List
I have found a list of all the Joyo Kanji. These are the Kanji in common use and approved by the government for use in newspapers and publications.

Here's what the list looks like:

漢字   学習学年 総画数  常用音訓
一     1年     1     イチ、イツ、ひと、ひと-つ
七     1年     2     シチ、なな、なな-つ、なの
丁     3年     2     チョウ、テイ
下     1年     3     カ、ゲ、した、しも、もと、さ-げる、さ-がる、くだ-る、くだ-す、くだ-さる、お-ろす、お-りる
三     1年     3     サン、み、み-つ、みっ-つ
上     1年     3     ジョウ、ショウ、うえ、うわ、かみ、あ-げる、あ-がる、のぼ-る、のぼ-せる、のぼ-す
丈            3        ジョウ、たけ

You can see the full html version at the website where I found it, here.

I have attached the tab-delimited text file to this post. It was also available at the same website.

Hmm, I have Eastern Languages installed and I can even type in Japanese, but at the site I can't see any of the characters.  I haven't had that happen since I installed the languages, and I can read your excerpt just fine, but I can't read any on the website. :( I think it would be very useful though. 

My current Japanese class is a second year, but my first year was much faster at a different school, so frankly I'm a bit bored since I'm pretty much just reviewing. I want to be able to take third year at yet another school, so I figure I should start teaching myself some things.  Mainly right now kanji, I figure, since I've been kind of lax about it before.  The hardest part is remembering all the readings. ><  I think this would at least let me know what they all are, since I unfortunately do not own any sort of Kanji dictionary.

This forum is encoded in UTF-8. That website is Shift_JIS.
The best thing to do is to set your browser to Auto-Detect Japanese.
Otherwise, at that page set your browser to Shift JIS, because they haven't put in the meta tag for what encoding the page is in.

Thanks for the quick reply! So...how do you change your browser to auto-detect Japanese? ^^'

I'm not sure about the menus in Internet Explorer. In Firefox, it is under View->Character Encoding->Auto Detect->Japanese.
You'll have to look through your menus.
