Yes the encoding is set ut utf-8
the strange thing is that the decodedText property still contains the
"ř" string after HtmlDecode
Nevermind, thanks for your explanation of the HtmlDecode, I have now created
a SpecialDecode function instead that works fine
private static string SpecialDecode(string decodedText)
{
string tmpResult = decodedText;
bool found = true;
try
{
while(found)
{
if( tmpResult.IndexOf("&#") > -1 )
{
string chars = tmpResult.Substring( tmpResult.IndexOf("&#")+2, 3);
//decode
char c1 = (char) ((ushort) int.Parse(chars));
tmpResult = tmpResult.Replace("&#" + chars + ";", c1.ToString());
}
else
{
found = false;
}
}
}
catch{}
return tmpResult;
}

i don't think that's your problem (although within a class, there's no
reason not to use System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode which decouples your
class from the context (ie, it can be reused outside of the web)).
All HtmlDecode does in the case of a numeric value (such as 345), is:
char c1 = (char) ((ushort) int.Parse("345"));
Response.Write(c1);
Is your page encoding set to utf-8? (if you put tracing on, at the top of
the trace information it says the encoding).l

news:OE**************@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... Maybe it is because I'm usning the Server object in a function in a non
web environment - a regular class:
string decodedText = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.HtmlDecode(
text );
where the text property sometimes contains the char ř
Is there some way that I can tell the HtmlDecode which encoding to use?

wrote in message news:%2****************@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... This works fine for me:
Response.Write(Server.HtmlDecode("ř"));
My web.config specifies:
<globalization requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" />
maybe yours is using something else?

Hello!
I have a problem decoding the czech character:
r
The HTML code for this character is ř but when running
Server.HTMLdecode on that string it just returns ř instead of the
real char. (It works on a lot of other characters)
I need to decode this string in order to render an image with this
character as a part of a headline.
Can anyone help me with this issue, or is it maybe a bug?
/kindest regards, Jonas
