I tried all the code below and nothing worked for me. I finally added utf-8 options to the jdbc URL.

jdbc:mysql://localhost/faq?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF8

WOrked like magic.

Hi

I would recommend to change de meta http charset to UTF 8 and add this to your Application class:

public void appendToResponse(WOResponse response, WOContext context) {
        super.appendToResponse(response, context);
if( _NSUtilities.UTF8StringEncoding.equals (response.contentEncoding()) && response.headerForKey("Content- Type").equals("text/html") ) response.setHeader("text/html; charset=UTF-8", "Content- Type");

    }

    public WOResponse createResponseInContext( WOContext wocontext ) {
WOResponse woresponse = super.createResponseInContext (wocontext); woresponse.setContentEncoding ( _NSUtilities.UTF8StringEncoding);
        return woresponse;
    }

public void takeValuesFromRequest(WORequest aRequest, WOContext aContext) { aRequest.setDefaultFormValueEncoding ( _NSUtilities.UTF8StringEncoding );
        super.takeValuesFromRequest(aRequest, aContext);
    }

Unless you really want iso-8859-1, but I don't find any reason to do so.

Ok, so I'm about to release a new version of a WO application and one of the testers says "Hey, when I type the following characters into a text box, they don't show up correctly after I save the record. "≤≥β√αγδ"

So I do the same on the Macintosh. I paste the characters and they look fine. I save the record, exit and reenter the page and behold, they show up as "???????" where on Windows they show up like this "&#8804&#8805&#946&#8730&#945&#947&#948".

What's a lonely WO programmer to do, after doing some google searches and searching the WO dev list and still hasn't a clue what to do? I do know that in the html this appears <META HTTP- EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
