https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690675#c2 --- Comment #2 from QuickJack . <test051...@hotmail.com> 2011-05-04 17:56:54 UTC --- I have analyzed the issue further by modifying the <globalization> section to some different values. The text displayed for the test.htm file is always „ für Flöhe älter als daß“. Below you will find what is displayed for Default.aspx depending on different settings of the <globalization> section. (1) <globalization requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" /> Default.aspx: „f�r Fl�he �lter als da�“ (2) <globalization requestEncoding="iso-8859-1" responseEncoding="iso-8859-1" /> Default.aspx: „f?r Fl?he ?lter als da?“ (3) <globalization requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" fileEncoding="utf-8"/> Default.aspx: „f�r Fl�he �lter als da�“ (4) <globalization requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" fileEncoding="iso-8859-1"/> Default.aspx: „für Flöhe älter als daß“ (5) <globalization requestEncoding="iso-8859-1" responseEncoding="iso-8859-1" fileEncoding="iso-8859-1"/> Default.aspx: „für Flöhe älter als daß“ By looking at the results we can make the following conclusions: (1) To have an ASP.NET application which is created by VS2008/2010 running under Mono without severe encoding bugs one has to add a globalization section which contains at least fileEncoding=“iso-8859-1“. (2) Mono's ASP.NET engine cannot display simple html files without corrupting it's encoding. The same html file is displayed correctly when directly opened/ displayed using FireFox. This significantly reduces Mono's usability in certain web applications. (3) I cannot see the point why utf-8 encoding produces the above mentioned problems. As far as I know, utf-8 encoding is the default in .Net Framework. (4) I cannot see the point why Mono needs a <globalization> section when .Net Framework does not. I guess there are more encoding problems because my already completed web applications have all sorts of encoding problems even after adding the above mentioned <globalization> section. But I cannot yet provide an appropriate sample application. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ mono-bugs maillist - mono-bugs@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-bugs
