Hi, I have the same problem with my shape. Encoding of mslayer is set to ISO-8859-1. defCharset in config.ini and Default charset of the webserver is set to UTF-8. Firefox character encoding is automatically set to UTF-8, but my option list still contains hieroglyphs instead of the german special characters.
When I set defCharset to ISO-8859-1 in config.ini the options list is shown correctly. <searchitem name="adresssuche" description="Adresssuche"> <layer type="shape" name="adressen"> <field type="s" name="NAME" description="Strasse" wildcard="2"> <definition type="options" connectiontype="ms" sort="asc" firstoption="*"> <mslayer encoding="ISO-8859-1" keyfield="NAME" showfield="NAME" /> </definition> </field> <field type="s" name="TXT" description="Hausnummer" wildcard="2" /> </layer> </searchitem> Greetings Robert Armin Burger schrieb: > One possibility could be that the encoding settings for the Web server > are not understood by the client browser.
