Groovy. It looks like setting the charset class attribute of a request subclass is deprecated, yet the documentation advises this at https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/1.1/narr/webob.html#unicode
Setting charset as an instance variable on my Request subclass instance worked though: class RequestWithUser(Request): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): Request.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs) self.charset = 'utf-8' And I had to switch to using webhelpers.util.html_escape instead of webhelpers.html.escape. -- Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
