I was trying some things out, and I noticed that it isn't actually possible (without using a char-code and converting it) to put something like ° (degree symbol) into a "message".
Example: this code: messages.info(request, request.GET.get('symbol')) with this URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/?symbol=%BO will result in: UnicodeEncodeError at / ('ascii', u'\ufffd', 0, 1, 'ordinal not in range(128)') Perhaps this is beyond what a framework should deal with, but if possible, it'd be handy. I built a little site for my wife using PostgreSQL and if she puts a trademark symbol into a page title, the success message that should come up on the next (which includes the title) page causes an exception. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
