Chinese characters

[edge]

hi,

I can go and type perfectly chinese characters in my table at sqlserver 2000
.. Now I am trying to get the data out of this table and display in my
webpage, but just a bunch of ???? are coming.
What I am missing here to display correctly the chinese characters?

TIA

you probably need to set your character set in the content type - for
example

Response.ContentType = "text/plain; charset=big5";

You need to check the syntax - thats off the top of my head

Are you setting web.config's fileEncoding, requestEncoding
and responseEncoding to Chinese Simplified "GB2312" or
Chinese Traditional "big5" or, are you using "utf-8" ?
<globalization
requestEncoding="GB2312"
responseEncoding="GB2312"
fileEncoding="GB2312"
/>

Also, it probably would be good to set culture and UIculture to "zh-CN".
