Hello
i have following problem with ASP (using Interdev, Win2003 Server): if a
special character is entered in a textbox, ASP or the Client Browser (IE 6)
seems to convert this character in HTML entities.
eg characters on this site:
http://unicode.e-workers.de/kyrillisch.php
come back as eg Л . i'm not shure, where exactly this happens. it
doesn't happen on ASP.NET sites though. the top of those documents looks
like this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html lang="de" >
<head>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=utf8">
<title>Beorda AG - Account Detail</title>
</head>
......
does anybody know how to avoid this? basically i'll need a utf8 postback i
guess. or i convert the entities to unicode before storing the values in the
database.
thanks for your hints
