RE: Witango-Talk: Encoding

[Robert Shubert]

I would think that storing the $reg; would be what you want, it's
similar to any other html such as <b>.  When displaying the contents of
the file, you want to use encoding=none so that the web browser will
turn it back into the (R). I'm not sure if this is an actual high-bit
character or just off the normal chart, but I believe that IE and your
database will always be better handling the &reg; than the actual
character. You could also try using @REPLACE to turn $reg; into <@CHAR
##> (whatever the ascii value is for a (R)) and then use
encoding=metahtml on the return.

Subject: Witango-Talk: Encoding

I am having trouble storing the "registered system" in my DB. It stores
as
&reg; instead of the symbol. I have tried inserting the row with the
following:

<@var user$ShoppingBasket[<@var request$CurrItem>,P_Name]> as well as
<@var user$ShoppingBasket[<@var request$CurrItem>,P_Name] encoding=none>
as
well as 
<@var user$ShoppingBasket[<@var request$CurrItem>,P_Name]
encoding=metahtml>

It still stores &reg;

Is this possible?

Thanks
