>>if you're using CFMX. I'M NOT using CFMX. This issue is with CF5.
>>CF-5 rendered in UTF-7 by default. >>We deal in 22 languages I deal with only ONE European language, and I only need 8bit extended ASCII: iso-8859-1 I have no problem with iso-8859-1 and there is no reason I need Unicode. >>The only thing I don't understand is that if your application is rendering 8859-1 in UTF-8, Gee you don't read my messages, do you? My application is only using 8859-1 which is an 8 bits code and is NOT encoded in UTF-8. This application gets a page somewhere else in the Internet, and this page is produced by ANOTHER application in UTF-8. This is why I have to convert to 8859 so the text is compatible. >>If your data is stored in a varchar field, CFMX automagically down-encodes the results and you wind up with garblage. However, if the data is coming from an nvarchar or ntext field, the unicode is rendered correctly. Ok, I give up... :-( -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
