I am running into a problem when I post certain characters from a form to
the server. Some users are using Frontpage to generate html which is then
copied into a textarea and sent to the server where it will be saved in the
database. If the html sticks to normal characters, there's no problem with
this approach. However, recently some of the of posts have caused problems
when sent to the database because some characters have been improperly
mapped.
For instance, Frontpage can generate an ellipses character that when posted,
becomes a '?' on the server. The string resulting from calling on the
request has the ellipses as a '?'. This happens for other characters as
well.
If I take the same html and save it to a file and open it in either Netscape
or IE, it looks fine, but the trip through JRun generates the wrong
characters.
I imagine this is an encoding issue, but I'm not sure the solution. I know
that a similar Cold Fusion application has no problem handling this
scenario. Any thoughts, suggestions?
thanks,
brian
