This seems to work fine

UTF8Decode(URLDecode('Sin título1_html_m5b7e3440.jpg'));

Curiosity struck, so I googled it...
Apparently you aren't the only one with this issue.
If you have the string before it gets encoded in the 1st place you can
convert to UTF8 first, then encode it to URL so you can decode it properly.
If you don't have access to the string before encoding... I think you have a
problem and may have to handle on your own.  You might be able to detect the
1st as a high ascii value and use that to flag using both to combine as one.

If you do find/create a solution, let us know.  I'm sure we'll run across
needing something like that at some point...

Thanks for the tip.

I tried it with no success.
URLEncode and URLDecode work apparently byte a byte and %C3%AD are converted
as individual chars.
UTF8Encode and UTF8Decode I don't get it work.
certainly I'm doing something wrong.

The %## codes are representations of the character.  It looks like a
URL encoding scheme to me.
For example:  %20 is the space character. The %C3%AD looks to be the
letter i with the accent.
Run it though a URL Decoder and see if that doesn't get you what you
are looking for?

Subject: [twsocket] help to convert from utf8 to ansi (locale)

Hi to all

I need to parse text to send via email if there are declared any file.
If text is html and saved from word processors or html editors all
chars out of first 127 ASCII set are convert using utf8 convention.
What I need is recover original text to check if declared files exists.

First I was working with BCB5 but it have reduced support for unicode
strings.
Now I'm using BC2009 but I'm walking around the same point.

Example of I get as parameter and what I need to test :
from file I get "Sin%20t%C3%ADtulo%201_html_m5b7e3440.jpg"
and I need "Sin título1_html_m5b7e3440.jpg"

I played with ansi, wide, unicode, utf8 variables and functions with
no success.

Thanks in advance for your help.
