My problem still remains open!!!! Help!!!
I noticed that if the umlauts are received correctly but they are not submitted in the right way.
For a ö I receive a POST as: ö
From the DB I get the text correctly.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
The DB encoding is : iso-8859-1.
Now, the strange thing is that is does not appear ALWAYS and only sometimes
and only in firefox.
So.. I cannot really reproduce the error every time.... which is hard to
debug.
As Barry said, the is a Unicode UTF-8 encoding.
So, instead of charset=iso-8859-1 it should be charset=UTF-8
Then, I suggest you look-up the code-point of the character you want to use and remember that code-points (HEX) don't work in html (DEC), so you'll have to make that translation to display them.
