Hi Folks,
I am having a problem with a forms entry using Unicode characters,
specifically "smart-quotes". Under Microsoft PWS and MS-SQL 7.0 it
works fine and I get the Unicode characters, such as smart-quotes,
being written and read form the database. However, if I use the same
code using Apache, Linux and SunONE ASP the Unicode characters don't
work!
Here is an example of the pages: http://www.oldham.gov.uk/mccall/smart.jpg http://www.oldham.gov.uk/mccall/broke.jpg
Our developers have tried to change the character set to correct the
problem, but have been unable to get it working and its currently
using a work-around at the moment to specifically detect the
characters we want.
Can anyone suggest what the problem is, and how to correct it?
Thanks,

Hi,
I understand that a second class OS cannot display first class characters :)
(just kidding)
Did you make sure, that your encoding settings have been set correct?
Response.CharSe t = "utf-8" (for instnace) or "windows-1252"
and the font, must be set correctly in the HTML, it must be a font, that has
that specific map correctly mapped. Unicode fonts will have that.
Try Arial,verdana.. .
