Title: Net:f:filename - Norwegian characters
Post by: frode on March 29, 2011, 09:55:29 AM

Hi,

I have these charset settings in my webserver(Nettalk 5.20):
charset: utf-8
store data as: Danish

When i use <!-- Net:f:filename --> to include fixed html code the Norwegian characters åøæ shows incorrectly in my webbrowser.
Please see screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/803077/nettalk5charset.png

The first line is coded in the template prompts(shows correctly) and the second one html from an external file using net:f:
Same html tag used:  <br>Test norwegian chars åøæ</br>

How do I make them display correctly. Is there a setting that I have missed ?

Thanks,
Frode

Hi Frode,

I think your best bet is to save the htm file as a utf file.
Most editors (although not clarion) allow this as an option.
If you need more let me know, and let us know if that works.

cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

That worked. I used Ultraedit to convert the file to utf

Thanks,

Hi Frode,

You may know this already, but in case you have a need to enter text directly on a page (using the Xhtml tab) you must encode special chars - and æ,ø,å are considered special in this respect. The html encoding for æ,ø,å is:

&aelig;
&oslash;
&aring;
