---------------------------
Hello,
this bug is closed but I'm also having that issue in 1.2 when exporting to csv
file. The JSP page has a UTF-8 encoding and characters with accents are all
displayed ok. When I export to csv, the response has a "Content-Type:
text/csv;charset=ISO-8859-1
". The result file is then not displayed correctly on Linux.
> Excel and Text exports use Windows Latin-1 encoding

> Project: DisplayTag
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Export
> Affects Versions: 1.0 RC2
> Reporter: J. Patterson Waltz III
> Assignee: fabrizio giustina
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.1
>
>
> Data coming out of my UTF-8 format Postgres database appears correctly in
> displaytag tables on webpages, but when I request an export in Excel or text
> format, all non ASCII characters are garbled. I am using the Mac OS X
> Platform.
> After some exploration, I determined that this is due to the file encoding
> being set to Windows Latin-1. Excel documents which were created on Windows
> and that I open on my Mac do not have garbled non-ASCII text, so I suspect
> that all that is missing in the exported file is some way to indicate to
> Excel what encoding has been used. Some of my recent web searches suggest
> that at least the more recent versions of Office store characters in
> little-endian UCS2 encoding.
> For text files, it seems to me that UTF-8 would be the the most platform and
> language agnostic encoding to use.
