Sorry, seems I missed the point. I'm using plain old Embperl, not Embperl::Object so it might be a difference in there.
My old Embperl app works flawless with UTF-8. Have you checked if your browser sends the data as UTF-8 with e.g. tcpdump? In general you shouldn't rely on Perl's utf-8 flag but en-/decode according to the charset you expect. I'm not sure if Embperl decodes request params by default into Perl's internal utf-8 representation. My app does successfully store German Umlauts into our Oracle database, but I haven't checked Perl's internal utf-8 flag. -- Best regards, Alex Am Donnerstag, den 22.04.2010, 21:05 +0200 schrieb Jean-Christophe Boggio: > Hi Alexander, > > Alexander Hartmaier a écrit : > > You should *always* return the correct charset in the http header, no > > matter which framework/cgi script you're using. > > ?
