convert from unicode to ascii (hebrew)

Hi,

i need to convert a unicode string to ascii string (in order to put it in
HTML page url )
right now the string gets to the page, but when the url clicked (with the
unicode string in a query string parameter) - the page gets to its
destination but showing יפור אהבה בלתי שכח" as the value
it got from the url.
so i need probably to convert it to ascii, but how?

TIA, z.

In .NET, strings are *always* Unicode.
right now the string gets to the page, but when the url clicked (with the
unicode string in a query string parameter) - the page gets to its
destination but showing =3Fפ=3Fר א=3F=3F=3F =3F=3Fת=3F ש=3F=3F" as the value
it got from the url.

You need to find out *exactly* what the problem is first. See

it managed to work out by changing the content-type header of the aspx/HTML
page as following:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1255">

My Friends: I am using std::ofstream (as well as ifstream), I hope that when i wrote in some std::string(...) with locale, ofstream can convert to UTF-8 encoding and save file to disk. So does ifstream. Something I found shows that, I need to have a proper codecvt to set it. I need more information, maybe a small piece of code sample. Thank you!

I guess the best choice is to use the Unicode code point names as basis. These can be accessed via unicodedata.name(). You can then create a mapping which can be processed by the character map codec.

From python manual str( ) Return a string containing a nicely printable representation of an object. For strings, this returns the string itself. The difference with repr(object) is that str(object) does not always attempt to return a string that is acceptable to eval(); its goal is to return a printable string. If no argument is given, returns the empty string, ''.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
