Hi folks,
I've been dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century and am
making my mod_perl application fully utf-8 aware and transparent. It's
all going OK but I want to know if anyone has a better solution to
receiving form data containing non-ASCII chars.
Output is fine - I can

slightly off topic, my suggestion on implementation would be along
the lines of this:
package Context();
Hi John
I've been using libapreq, which has a charset method:
http://search.cpan.org/~joesuf/libapreq2-2.08/glue/perl/xsbuilder/APR/Request/Param/Param.pod#charset
It is fairly limited, it recognises:
0 APREQ_CHARSET_ASCII (7-bit us-ascii)
1 APREQ_CHARSET_LATIN1 (8-bit iso-8859-1)
2
Thanks Gents,
I've got a certain level of abstraction as per Jonathan's approach,
which I can just add the libapreq method.
The note about DBD::MySQL is interesting, I was wondering about that!
cheers
John
