Is anyone cutting and pasting MS Word "HTML" into the CMS? This is usually the root of any text weirdness.

The software company feels that ColdFusion is causing this issue, but I am not convinced of this. The content management editor should write a " " when contiguous blank spaces are written into the html code, instead the CMS writes an extended ASCII character (hex 0xC5). This shouldn't happen. Because the pages are written in UTF-8, the server correctly displays the character (as it is supposed to). The solution is to teach the CMS editor to write the html sequence " " instead of the extended ASCII character 0xC5. But not sure where to go from here. Should I be using <cfcontent> or < cfprocessingdirective> on every page Steve LaBadie, Web Manager East Stroudsburg University 200 Prospect St. East Stroudsburg, Pa 18301 570-422-3999 [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.esu.edu <http://www.esu.edu/> <http://www.esu.edu <http://www.esu.edu/> > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:296887 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
