When posting special characters into editors and UIs manually in
Windows, the process involves holding down the Alt key, then typing
the ASCII code, then releasing the Alt key.
So, in your case, press & hold Alt then type 0163 then release
Alt.
But you want to enter this post via CFML? Not by your keyboard?
Have you tried the chr() function?
As in
<cfoutput>#chr(163)#</cfoutput>

just displays the code and not the symbol.
Still looking.

This looks like it might be pretty close to your issue:

"Educated guess: You have a ISO-8859-1 encoded pound sign in a
UTF-8 encoded page."
Try HTML's £ or £ instead of the literal
symbol.

Absolutely right, it is the following:
U+FFFD � replacement
character
Will test in other browsers to see if it continues
but I have never seen it on facebook before in anyone
else's posts so just wondering what they are sending
instead of the £ symbol in their cfhttp push to the
feed.
Will update when I find the answer.

Hi All,
I am trying to get a page to post something to
a users facebook status page. I can get it to post
as I have sorted out the oauth etc and accessToken
etc and have the correct scope enabled etc.
The message I want to post is this: Just
received £#NumberFormat(FORM.VoucherValue,'9.99')#
in compensation vouchers for train delays and
cancellations thanks to DRS!
But the £ symbol is coming out as 2 dimonds on
facebook. I have tried sending encoded values, hex
values, UTF8 values etc but to now avail. Does
anyone have any ideas or a direction to point me
in? Google does not seem to be returning anything
remotely relevant.
Welcome any input.
Thanks,
Lee
