I'm trying to insert some special characters from the UTF8 character
set into a text field.
With some of the characters ( particularly £, EURO, ¬) all I'm seeing is
a string of à à à à à à .
$char_set_1=("!£ EURO$%^&*()_-+=[ ]{ }~#'@;:/?.>,<|\¬`")
@browser.text_field(:name, "title").append(char_set_1)
If I enter these characters into the text field manually they appear
correctly - so I'm assuming the problem is with watir?
I've tried using
require 'win32ole'
WIN32OLE.codepage = WIN32OLE::CP_UTF8
and have checked that my text editor is encoding the characters in
UTF-8 - but still no luck.
If i input each character invidually with a brief pause inbetween then
it seems to work i.e.
@browser.text_field(:name, "title").append("$")
sleep(1)
@browser.text_field(:name, "title").append("%")
sleep(1)
@browser.text_field(:name, "title").append("£")
Is there anyway around this?
I'm using FireWatir.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
J
