Re: Accented letters in browse window VFP9)
Paul Tx for the reply. I should have mentioned that I'm using VFP9 (hence the edited subject) I'm using FF and am viewing a page with the French word Cote (o circumflex). It displays correctly in the browser with any of the following (chosen from View...Character encoding) - Western (ISO-8859-1), Western (ISO-8859-15), English (US-ASCII), Western (Windows 1252). What I can't do is copy and paste this word into a field in the browse window and have it display correctly.

I have tried several options without success ... Are these characters available in your Windows ANSI codepage? I guess you're using Windows 1252 (Western European). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1252 In this case yes - o circumflex is ACSII 244 in that table. When pasting text from a Unicode application (like a browser) Windows will try to convert the Unicode characters using the current ANSI codepage. If your codepage does not support a particular character it will be converted into something else. e.g. 'a' with an umlaut will be converted into a plain 'a'. So should I set the code page for the table to Windows 1252 (perhaps before pasting the test) ?
