Same problem here with mysql and sqlite3. When will the mysql and sqlite3 drivers be encoding-aware? Is there a workaround? I have problems with this because I'm from germany and need utf8 for the german umlauts. If i save the templates as ANSI, the outputs from database with umlauts are working, but when i use umlauts directly in the templates i get this error: invalid byte sequence for encoding "ASCII-8BIT" If i save the templates as UTF8, the umlauts in the templates are working, but the outputs from the database with umlauts cause this error: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF-8" I'm using Ruby 1.9.1, Rails 2.3.2, mysql/ruby 2.8.1, sqlite3/ruby 1.2.4 slang17 -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
