There is a setting in slide.properties called org.apache.slide.urlEncoding! Now I have no idea what it is doing, but maybe this value should be used to avoid specifying the same thing twice!
The problem with slide and encoding right now is that it will accept both UTF8 and local encoded URLs! This result in a situation where some users are uploading files with local encoding and some with UTF8 and they cannot access each others files - please note that I am talking about the uri and not the content of the files! This is a big problem!! In case of UTF8 enabled on the server, all non UFT8 encoded uri's in PUT, MKCOL and other commands that will create a new uri on the server should be rejected as incorrect URI! I really believe that this is a must in order to avoid users with different encodings to corrupt data on a slide server! /Jacob -----Original Message----- From: Oliver Zeigermann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 21. november 2003 10:02 To: Slide Users Mailing List Subject: Re: slide and encoding - why?

It merely gives a hint how to store *descriptors*, not content. Using JDOM all valid encodings should work, but depending on your character set some may have more overhead than others. UTF-8 is a save guess, iso-latin-1/15 would be even better for Danish. But, as I said, it does not matter too much. To prevent confusion, maybe we should not even specify it in the reference store settings as it defaults to UTF-8 any way...
