Im having trouble to get 'funky' characters to work with newform posts.
I have read the posts on the subject, and Im not sure if I run into a
bug...
class Guide(models.Model):
about = models.CharField(maxlength=1500)
class EditForm(forms.Form):
about =
forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea(attrs={'rows':'15',
'cols':'40'}),max_length=1500, required=False)
In my view:
if edit_form.is_valid():
clean_data = edit_form.clean_data
guide.about = clean_data['about']
guide.save()
When posting 'A word about ÅÄÖ' mysql gives: Warning: Data
truncated for column 'about' at row 1
return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) and stores everything up to
the funky chars.
If I change to "raw" input (guide.about = request.POST['about'] ) it
actually get stored in db but guide.save() throws UnicodeDecodeError:
'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 90: ordinal not in
range(128)
Please, any help would be valuable
Regards
Sten
