Hi,
I'm in trouble with encoding again.
I have a text area. Where I can enter sentences. And when a sentence
that contains multiple lines is typed I get this into the DB:
(json serialized)
--- "{\"text\":[\"line one\\r\\nline two\"]}"
Ok. When I take it from the db I see it like this in the controller:
{"line one\r\nline two"=>"text"}
(I have done something in between to change the order but that's
irrelevant)
But you can see the \r\n in it.
The thing is that in the view I need to pass it via javascript to a
function that re-creates the text area dynamically.
But the function gives the error: "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected
token ILLEGAL"
For the javascript function I can use <%= CGI::escape(@thestring) %> and
then the text area is created and the line breaks respected. That would
be a way out.
BUT. If any of the letters contain an accent, like í, then CGI::escape
displays the letters with accents incorrectly. Instead of í I get Ã...
I cannot find a way to live with both, accents and line breaks.
Any ideas?
