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)". > ... >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? 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. -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
