Anyone got a bit of code that can turn any odd characters that seem to crop
up in text created on the Mac, into their proper equivalents.  e.g:
�, �, � all would get changed to an apostrophe.

Why should O tilde, O grave and O acute be converted to apostrophes - are you seeing apostrophes in the original document and O tilde, O grave and O acute after saving the contents of the original document in your CF application? How are these characters getting into your application, are the documents being opened on a PC or are the contents being copied from a doc on the mac and pasted into a form on a web page (within a browser window also open on the Mac)?


Knowing the decimal number values for the characters you are having problems with will help diagnose the problem. If you are using CFMX, you can use asc(), if you are using an earlier version of CF, just use javascript, the string method charCodeAt() will do the trick.

BTW, if you're wondering why I'm blathering on about O tilde, O grave and O acute, then it's possible that our email apps are using different character sets. If this is the case, what characters did you refer to in your original email?
