Hello,

I have still Problems with the special german characters and the
LDAP-Transformer.
When I write
<map:serializer name="html" mime-type="text/html" src
="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.HTMLSerializer">
    <doctype-public>-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN</doctype-public>
    <encoding>ISO-8859-1</encoding>
    <omit-xml-declaration>yes</omit-xml-declaration>
</map:serializer>
nothing happens.

When I make in the xsp-page  between <xsp:logic> a ldap-query, the
characters return fine. Why return the LDAP-Transformer false characters?

Thank you in advance

Katrin Seiffert

This is an issue with your database vendor not supporting other encoding
standards.  Bear in mind that old Netscape 4.x browsers do not handle
UTF-8 encodings well at all.  The newer browsers all do support it.

That said, Readers are supposed to make the conversions for you...
