Hi Alex,
Welcome to the ASP.NET newsgroup.
From your description, you've created a very simple ASP.NET 2.0 page in VS
2005, when running the page, you found the page displayed the text in
chinese(asia) charset/encoding and you haven't been able to change it,
correct?
As for the charset/ecnoding problem, I'd like to confirm the detailed
behavior of it. Is the page displaying the text in some garbo code or it is
the client browser whch automatically choose chinese(aisa) encoding?
As for the ASP.NET's globalization/localization support, it can be divided
into serveral parts:
#ASP.NET Globalization and Localization
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...s9(VS.80).aspx
and for your scenario, you can have a look at the encoding related
settings. ASP.NET support several encoding setting(request Encoding,
responseEncodin g, fileEncoding ) in web.config file (some can be set
dynamically in code or in page's @Page directive).
#How to: Select an Encoding for ASP.NET Web Page Globalization
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...xf(VS.80).aspx
RequestEncoding is used to control how to ASP.NET runtime process the text
passed from client, while responseEncodin g controls who to runtime will
write out the string/text that will flushed to client-side. FileEncoding
is used to determine how to runtime will read text from the page's aspx
file.
In addition ,as for client browser, it will automatically select a encoding
type according to the server page's response encoding type, if you're sure
you've configured your ASP.NET page to output utf-8 encoded text, you can
manually select the browser's encoding to utf-8 to see whether the page can
display well.
If there's anything unclear or anything else I missed, please feel free to
let me know.
Regards,
Steven Cheng
