SeletedIndex change charset on Gridview

[inga2005]

Hi!
I have a very strange problem. I populate a gridview control with a
list containing swedish cities and that looks fine. But once I click
on one of the rows in the gridview to select that specific row the
swedish characters å,ä,ö are translated into rubbish such as ## and
other. Does anyone know why this is happning?
Cheers

Hello inga2005,

I suppose it happens when viewstate tries to restore your unicode symbols
and translates them to ASCII
