Hi there,
 
I’m trying to submit a form with Unicode characters. The characters are 
displayed ok in the form prior to submitting, but once I click submit, they are 
transmitted in “crippled” form. For example with the input string:
Một hai ba bốn năm sáu (Vietnamese)
 
What is transmitted is: 
Mo>-.t hai ba bo>'n nam sáu (Unicode characters are converted to ASCII-256 
characters).
 
I’m using lynx 2.8.7, and have already done the changes required for displaying 
Unicode: I’ve changed the display character set to UTF-8, the assumed document 
character set to utf-8, and changed the terminal (putty) character set to 
UTF-8. 
All Unicode characters from the webpage are displayed correctly. Prior to 
clicking “submit”, the Unicode characters typed into the form are also 
displayed 
correctly in the lynx window. The corruption only happens just before form 
content transmission. 

 
This is not a webserver problem because if I use another browser (say, Firefox) 
then everything is ok.
 
Any insight on what I can do?
 
Thanks!
