My guess was maybe the escape function is causing those characters to display incorrectly, then i tried without the escape, still � appears for characters like é but this time it didn't happen for ', then i changed é to é in the data, it displayed correctly. Now this is all without the escape.
now i know having escape is all about XSS, seems i might need to create my own helper for this. Any ideas how should i approach with this? what kind of helper should i create? Is it possible to display é as é instead of encoding into é ? jasonistaken wrote: > > Yes, but did you try: > > <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" /> > > > ?? > On 04/02/2009 2:31 PM, prado wrote: >> Thanks, i should have mentioned this before, i did try >> >> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> >> >> didn't work. >> >> What is surprising that these characters work fine with normal PHP >> scripting, procedural or OOPs style. >> >> This problem only propped up when i started using Zend framework, now i >> am >> using escape method before i display the data, is there any other method >> that i may use for parsing these characters correctly? > > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Unable-to-show-latin-characters-using-zend-framework-tp21840418p21842344.html Sent from the Zend Framework mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
