Check that the template file has been saved in UTF-8 format to disk. Alternatively, if your template files are not UTF-8, make sure they are all encoded with the same encoding and then read up about the FILE_CHARSET setting. Basically, Django has to know how to convert the data it's reading from disk into Unicode data. It assumes you are using UTF-8 encoding, by default; if you are using something different, you must be using the same encoding for all your template files and you have to tell Django what that encoding is. -- Plan to be spontaneous - tomorrow. http://www.pointy-stick.com/blog/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
