The webfolders in windows XP uses UTF8. Most of the DAV clients that I have found encodes in client character set and not UTF8.

I've set slide.properties and the txFileStore encoding to UTF-8. I'll see what I can do about updating my 2000 webfolders. I tried it with Konqueror on a SuSe box, and I can create and move into collections with umlauts in the title, but they are still displayed incorrectly (incorrect special characters). Is there a client I can use to be sure things are working correctly? I've also tried cadaver but I'm having no luck there either..... Thanks for any advice and help, Eric On Sun, 2004-01-04 at 21:55, Jacob Lund wrote: > This sounds like an encoding problem! > > I would recommend UTF-8 encoding! > > This is what worked for me!
