hi
i have some troubles with scandinavian characters in form input
fields. i wish to translate (or subsitute rather) the special ones
into their html enitity before they are put in a database.
something like:
...
my %params = $r->method eq 'POST' ? $r->content : $r->args;
my $name = $params{$name};
$name =~ s/SPEC_CHAR/HTML_ENTITY/g;
...
but that doesn't work (?)
(the above subsitution does work with normal characters)
has this something to do with the particular perl i have build or
mod_perl or apache ?
is their an easy fix ?
perl 5.8.0 / os x darwin
mod_perl 1.27
apache 1.3.26
thanks
