Thank you!
I left the "head" out by mistake, however only after implementing the
meta char set as you suggested (meta charset: "UTF-8") the special
characters are displayed correctly in the title:)
on with camping!
regards,

2. UTF-8 encoding doesn't work. Special characters like č, š, ž from
my language are not displayed. Should I force the encoding and how?
You need to do two things:
a) Ensure that the source text is, in fact, encoded in UTF-8. Your
editor should provide a way to change the encoding used, most sane
ones use UTF-8 by default nowadays, though.
b) Ensure that a '<meta charset="UTF-8" />' tag (or equivalent, there
are many variants, all of which work) is present on the HTML output of
your application. Otherwise browsers try to guess the encoding used
and usually get it wrong.
Looking at the source code you linked, you have the following in the
`layout` method:
html do
title 'Aplikacija za dvojezične obrazce'
body do
self << yield
end
end
This should probably be:
html do
head do
title 'Aplikacija za dvojezične obrazce'
end
body do
self << yield
end
end
I *think* the latest mab adds the <meta> tag I mentioned automatically
if you call `head`, but I'm not entirely sure – just check :), and if
it doesn't, add `meta charset: 'UTF-8'` just after `head do` yourself.
