Hi Mr T.J. Crowder
Thanks for your reply and all the help.
Well I have checked the Prototype Js file code and found the :-
Ajax.Base = Class.create({
initialize: function(options) {
this.options = {
method: 'post',
asynchronous: true,
contentType: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
encoding: 'UTF-8',
parameters: '',
evalJSON: true,
evalJS: true
};
Here the Ajax options are being set and we can see that encoding is
given UTF-8.
Now what should I put in the encoding parameter instead of UTF-8 which
allows the character like 'ñ'.
I have tried the ISO-8859, but the result is same.
Anu guidance here will be great help.
Thanks again
Harpreet
