Hi List I've been pottering away trying to get utf-8 behaving on my set up and have nearly got there but then the client phoned up saying that the £ symbol was being displayed as a ?
The first page contains several languages and a £ sign and all is displayed fine. http://perl.wtsbroadcast.com/about/Angies_test_page.html The second is the same as the first but without all the extra language stuff. There the £ displays as a ?. http://perl.wtsbroadcast.com/about/Angies_second_test_page.html Very wierd. Same code generated both pages. To explain the whole set up would take a *long* time but I wondered if anyone else had seen this? $v = $q->url_param('fieldname'); my $decoder = Encode::Guess->guess($v); ref($decoder) or warn "Can't guess for $v: $decoder"; # trap error this way if (ref($decoder)) { my $utf8 = $decoder->decode($v) ? $decoder->decode($v) : $v; $params{$uarg} = $utf8; } else { $params{$uarg} = decode("utf8", $v) ? decode("utf8", $v) : $v; } I just can't fathom this.
