Hello all,
I've been struggling with this for some time and know there must be an
answer out there.
I'm using URL arguments to pass parameters to my controller. It's a
site about names, so take the url http://domain.com/name/Jesús (note
the accented u). The Name.pm controller has an :Args(1) decorator so
Jesús is stored in $name and then passed to my DBIC model in a -
>search({name => $name}) call. This doesn't manage to find the row
that exists in mysql. When I dump $name I get:
'name' => 'Jes\xc3\xbas'
which I think I understand as being perl's internal escaping of utf-8
characters.
I've done everything recommended on http://dev.catalystframework.org/wiki/gettingstarted/tutorialsandhowtos/using_unicode
and the name column in my mysql database uses the utf-8 charset.
Where am I going wrong?
Best regards,
--Hugh
