Hi,
Just because of that we can not use Homesite for Unicode pages. But what is clear that we do not need any of these extra annoying tags in our pages when we save our pages as Unicode(BOM) and just because of that our main IDE is DWMX. :-) Best regards, O�uz Demirkap� http://demirkapi.net <http://demirkapi.net/> -----Original Message----- From: Paul Hastings [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2005 6:00 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: CFMX, Dreamweaver and UTF-8 Calvin Ward wrote: > If I understand correctly, if I use Dreamweaver to save a .cfm file with a > BOM for Unicode, then I shouldn't need to use <cfprocessingdirective>. Does > that sound correct? correct but not really the best practice. a BOM isn't actually part of the definition for utf-8. so if you have any other s/w monkeying with your files & it doesn't respect the BOM, bye-bye BOM, hello mojibake. and since you got me started on the subject, it's really a good idea to include cfcontent & setEncoding in the application.cfm (or the blackstone equivalents) and cfprocessingdirective on each page. and it's also still a good idea to provide language & encoding hints via html/meta tags (even though cf ignores these) for dumb as doorknobs spiders, screen readers, etc. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
