Hello community i have a next problem. i have connected with pyodbc to a mssql db. i read values out of it, all works, but i have problems with "ä" "ö" and "ü". on my html.page i made this into the header: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> on all my pages this umlauts works, but not the values of the pyodbc... when i only give out the row, i become something like this: Hansj\xf6rg ,but it have to be this: Hansjörg when i print this value out into a table, the field keeps empty. it must be a problem of pyodbc, but i dont know how to fix it. i tryed something like this: views.py -------------------------------------------------------- def kundendaten(request): ret = request.POST form = ret['kunde'] conn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=MAURITIUS;DATABASE=baan5c;UID=portal;PWD=P0rtalReader') cursor = conn.cursor() cursor.execute("SELECT x.t_name, x.t_user, y.t_mail FROM tttaad200000 as x, tttcmf200000 as y WHERE (x.t_name = y.t_name) AND (x.t_user = '%s')"%form) rows = unicode(cursor.fetchall(), 'utf-8') now = datetime.datetime.now() return render_to_response("kundendaten.html", { 'rows': rows, 'current_date': now, 'form': form}, context_instance=RequestContext(request)) --------------------------------------------------------------------- but the page gave this error: TypeError at /kundendaten/
