Strictly speaking, there is no "Unicode charset".
Apparently something in your data flow uses the "utf-8" charset
but your pages do not tell this to the browser.
You may try to set an
"response.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/html; charset=utf-8)".

Often the database configuration or some environment variable
determine the so called client encoding. The client encoding
controls which encoding (aka "charset") the client expects for
unicode strings.
There may be differences between your two configurations.

[Zope-DB] Unicode charset problems dealing with the ZmySQLDA product
Hello. I'm dealing with the ZmySQLDA product on Zope 2.9.7 and Python 2.4.3 versions. I'm having problems when I retrieve data from the database because the data is not rendered using the unicode charset when the zope instance is in a vserver (with a Gentoo Linux distribution), so I get weird characters like 'á' instead of the usual ones: 'á' (as they are strored inthe db). This is not happening on my local machine, so I guess it could be a bad configuration of the vserver. Is there any possibilities to pass a parameter to the ZmySQLDSA connection to make it use the unicode charset? Which differences are between the _mysql python module and the MySQLdb library for this purpose? Could it be the configuation of the vserver? How can it be relationed with the unicode problems? Any idea? Thanks!! ___ Zope-DB mailing list Zope-DB@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-db
