Not using UTF8?
Reading a ColdFusion
page with a nondefault character encoding
Macromedia recommends that you encode all
international application pages as UTF-8 with a byte-order mark (BOM),
so that ColdFusion automatically detects the page as UTF-8 encoded; no
cfprocessingdirective tag is
needed. The BOM sets the first byte of a UTF file, so the program
reading the page recognizes which encoding is in use.
If this is not possible, to specify that
ColdFusion reads a page with a character encoding other than the Java
default locale value, you use the cfprocessingdirective
tag and pageencoding attribute, as follows:
<cfprocessingdirective pageencoding=" encoding ">
Typically, you assign one of the following
values to encoding :
 |
EUC-JP
(Japanese) |
|
EUC-KR
(Korean) |
|
ISO-8859-1
(Western European and English) |
|
SHIFT_JIS
(Japanese) |
|
UTF-8 (All
Languages) |

Hey all,
I'm trying to
get some web pages to show in Simplfied Chinese encoding, but the
standard META tag doesn't seem to be working.
When I look at
this page:
All the chinese
characters are coming up wrong, however, when I go to the
View->Encoding menu and manually set the encoding to gb2312, it
looks fine.
I have the
<meta
http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=gb2312">
line in there
which is supposed to set the character encoding, but my browser is
defaulting to Unicode.
This only
started happenning when it moved from III5 on Win 2000 Server to IIS6
on Win 2003 Server. Is there a server setting I need to tweak to enable
this?
thanks.
