Okay, I�m trying to use a Wiki for multi west european langugaes but have run into a small problem.
When I use non english chars (I guess non ascii) in the textarea, they get inserted into MySQL as weird chars. When the page is requested for viewing, the weird chars are interpreted correctly for viewing (ie as west euro chars). The problem arises when I want to edit that page. the weird chars are inserted into the textarea and stay that way for the rest of their life on the wiki. I've tried a simple non web db entry with perl and the chars are entered into the DB asis and retrieved asis :) So, with all the layers (Apache, Perl, XML, XSP, MySQL) all dealing with latin1, UTF-8 by default, what am I to do . Has anyone covered this? I did a little test on axkit's wiki and the result was worse than mine. The wiki didn't display the chars correctly atall. I know axkit is UTF8 by default, my MySQL is latin1 by default etc etc. It's confusing. Any help would be great -Anthony --------------------------------- Want to chat instantly with your online friends?�Get the FREE Yahoo!Messenger
