Re: URLEncode accent-i
I had high hopes but converting to ISO didn't work. That yields: Santer%EDa The server wants UTF8 and I think (but am not sure) that I need to get: Santer%C3%ADa I haven't found the right combination of uniEncode/Decode and urlEncode that doesn't make a mess of the string. Does anyone know how to do this without manually replacing every possible combination of high-ascii characters?

Re: URLEncode accent-i
Hi Jacqueline, When you say « I need to send this word to the server: Santería » : Are you speaking from the web server or from the database server ? If the database server is your problematic target, witch one are you using : PostgreSQL; MySQL; SQLite; other ? I got, times ago such kind of troubles against PostgreSQL before solving them definitively in using a simple and trustable solution i can explicit if appropriate.

Hi, this is because you are working on Mac. You have to convert it first from Mac to Iso. A URLencode(mactoiso(Santería)) should do. Regards, Matthias Am 23.06.2014 um 22:25 schrieb J.
