I have run into that before and can't remember how I got around it: UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf3'
This is what I'm trying to do: solicitud = model.Solicitud(lugar_nacimiento = kw['lugar_nacimiento'].decode('utf-8')) I have also tried solicitud = model.Solicitud(lugar_nacimiento = kw['lugar_nacimiento']) where the problem is the word 'Gijón' passed to a input field and which prints out nicely as 'Gij\u00f3n' Any hints? (this one should be on the FAQ ;-) I am using SQLObject (this time) with turbogears on Ubuntu with mysql 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1 for debian-linux-gnu on x86_64 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ sqlobject-discuss mailing list sqlobject-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sqlobject-discuss
