[wtr-general] Re: Dealing with the  character
I'm using IE. I tried using gsub!(/Â/, ), but I couldn't remove the
remaining spaces. It took a long time, but I think I figured it out
using this:
x = 3       Jubitz Travel Center              Â
Portland,OR
b = x.gsub(x[/(\d+)(\b[^0-9A-Za-z]{1,}\b)/], '') # gets rid of the
beginning number/funky chars
puts b.gsub(b[/(\b[^0-9A-Za-z]{1,}\b)(\w+)(,..)\Z/], '') # gets rid of
the second set of funky chars and city/state

Nice that you got it worked out.
One question, though.
Open IE, go to the website you're testing, right click, and select
Encoding. Is Unicode (UTF-8) selected?

[wtr-general] Re: Dealing with the  character
It appears that Western European (ISO) is selected by default. Is
there something I can do in the code to convert it to UTF-8?

[wtr-general] Re: Dealing with the  character
You should be able to select Unicode (UTF-8) from that dropdown. That
might fix the  issue that you're observing.

[wtr-general] Re: Dealing with the  character
This will remove each  character from the string: x = 3       Jubitz Travel Center               Portland,OR x.gsub!(/Â/, ) But you're probably looking to solve your root problem. Looks like a UTF-8 vs. ISO-8859-1 issue. Do a search for utf-8  as a space on your favorite search engine, and that should point you in the right direction (hopefully). Hope that helps. orde On Mar 9, 8:58 am, George george.sand...@gmail.com wrote: I'm not sure if this is a Watir or a Ruby question.

Is this related to UTF-8? Ultimately, I'm trying to isolate Jubitz Travel Center from the text string. If someone can help, I would be most grateful!
