Hi,
any idea why Umlaute are not displayed correctly when they appear in
text generated from the FormBuilder module?
When looking at the source of the form in the web browser, it has:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd;

So the header says the encoding is UTF-8. The message template is also
UTF-8:
sunflo cgi-bin # file
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20.1/CGI/FormBuilder/Messages/de.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20.1/CGI/FormBuilder/Messages/de.pm: Perl5
module source, UTF-8 Unicode text
sunflo cgi-bin #
Text with Umlauten I put myself into the form, like field labels, are
shown correctly. I have put '@charset utf-8;' at the beginning of the
style sheet, but it doesn't help.
How could I fix this problem?
This is probably not the best list for this question, but one possible
Likely not, yet it could be a Gentoo-specific problem.
solution is to html encode it. You can use app-text/recode as follows:
# echo 'ü' | recode utf8...html
uuml;
Or just use the codes from:

Thanks, I could patch the message template accordingly, that would solve
the problem :)
