Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-4915: ---------------------------------------- Sorry I had 2 very busy weeks, did hnot get much chances to work on OFBiz project. I Will try to have a look this weekend... did you made some more progress already? > Lookup Form not working with Arabic characters > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-4915 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4915 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Bug > Components: ALL COMPONENTS > Affects Versions: Release Branch 11.04, Release Branch 12.04 > Reporter: Taher Alkhateeb > Assignee: Jacques Le Roux > Priority: Minor > Labels: form, jQuery, javascript, lookup > Attachments: search_party_after_submit.png, > search_party_before_submit.png > > > Any field in a form that uses the <lookup target-form-name="WhateverForm"/> > would not return results when searching in Arabic. I suspect the main > offender is javascript/jQuery when parsing user input. > For example, if I go to https://localhost:8443/ordermgr/control/findorders > and click on "Party ID", and search the firstname or lastname in arabic, no > values are returned and the value in the search box changes from arabic to > some weird encoding ( e.g. "حسن" becomes Øس٠) > Also, after some investigation, I came to the realization that this only > happens when the lookup field has presentation="layer", if however, the > presentation="window" then it works normally which leads me to conclude > definitely that this is javascript/jQuery issue of parsing input data. More > specifically, this is javascript not processing with the correct encoding > (unicode in this case). I know this because if I paste the unicode > representation directly to the input box then it searches correctly -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
