Thanks Peter for replying.
This is an example of the output of repr(x) as you requested:

'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

Results:
link opened from IE6->Outlook: it works
link opened from IE6->Pocomail: it works
link opened from Firefox->Outlook: characters with accent fail
link opened from Firefox->Pocomail: characters with accent fail

It looks like having to do more with Firefox than with Python itself but 
maybe someone can help anyway?

It might help if you showed us the output of "repr(x)" where x is the 
output of the campovalore.encode('iso-8859-1') part above.

email link and foreign accent

[Vittorio]

Hi,

I have one problem ( I am a python beginner) in a cgi:

print"""mailto:%s";>""" %(campovalore.encode('iso-8859-1'))
print campovalore.encode('iso-8859-1')
print ""


campovalore is an email address  with special (italian) characters.

>From IE6 everything is fine and the link launches my predefined (in 
Windows) email client with the correct string in the mailto field.

But from Firefox and the same email client I have an incorrect mailto field 
every time there is a special character in the string.

Any suggestion is welcome,

vittorio
