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.
