In response to "
If I understand you, you are saying that you are typing "é" in a utf8 html
form, and getting "é" in your %ARGS variable. Is that correct?
"
Yes, arguments in %ARGS are UTF-8 well-formed. The problem is that it is send back to browser "as-is". I've found that you have to tell perl that strings in %ARGS are UTF-8 "flagged" before work on them and send it back. So the following code work now for me:
<%init>
my $fif = HTML::FillInForm->new;
my $data = "">
my $form = $m->content;
my @par_names = $r->param();
my $form_input = {};
foreach my $name ( @par_names ) {
my @val = $r->param( $name );
foreach ( @val ) {
$_ = Encode::decode_utf8( $_ );
}
$name = Encode::decode_utf8( $name );
if ( scalar @val == 1 ) {
$form_input ->{$name} = $val[0];
} else {
$form_input ->{$name} = [EMAIL PROTECTED]; # save value as an array ref
}
}
if ($object ) {
my $filled = $fif->fill( scalarref => \$form,
fdat => $form_input,
fill_password => $fill_password
);
$m->print($filled);
}
else
{
$m->print($form);
}
</%init>
Thanks for your help. Suggestions welcomed!

If I understand you, you are saying that you are typing "é" in a utf8 html
form, and getting "é" in your %ARGS variable. Is that correct?
If so, "é" is in fact the utf8 encoding for the iso-8859-1 character "é",
so everything is working correctly.
On the other hand, if you are typing "é" in the form, and seeing "é" on
the result page, it means that you are actually outputting "é" to the
page, because something is converting the "é" to utf8 twice. (Once when
the form is submitted, which is correct, and once sometime during the
process of assembling and outputting the page, which is bad.) This could
be caused by a great variety of non-utf8 compliant modules, misplaced utf8
flags, and even bugs in perl itself. But it is not mason-specific.
