cf doesn't care what the html meta headers are, it will output to it's default encoding (usually utf-8) unless told to do otherwise. use cfprocessingdirecive to change the encoding page-by-page or you can swap the whole server by changing the defaultCharset value in cf_root/lib/neo-runtime.xml file: <var name='defaultCharset'><string>UTF-8</string></var> to a valid charset and re-starting the cf server service. that said, i'm fairly sure paypal allows you to control the encoding you use to talk to it, check out the wrongly named (to me) "Language Encoding" in your paypal profile. you should probably standardize on just the one encoding & of course that should be unicode. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:318829 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
