My primary problem is that I need to access a web page that is
UTF8, and convert it to unicode so that I can edit it and save it
out as a file of unicode. There are a few good examples of how to
deal with unicode in revolution but so far no examples of using get
URL "http:// ..." to obtain the UTF8 web page and convert it to
unicode.
Here are things I have learned about revolution and unicode after
many hours of searching:
The DVD from Revcon 2006 has the talk by Devin Asay on unicode and
it covers lots of the gotchas on using Unicode.
<http://www.runrev.com/offers/conference_dvd.php>
Devin has a web page with some similar content
<http://revolution.byu.edu/unicode/unicodeInRev.html>
His stack from the Revcon 2006 presentation has the example scripts
that he referred to and although I have a copy from the conference,
I cannot find any references to it online to provide a url.
Kee,
Try: go stack URL "http://revolution.byu.edu/unicodeInRev.rev";
and: go stack URL "http://revolution.byu.edu/unicodeExamples.rev";
If this is hopeless using
get URL "http:// ..."
to grab utf8 and convert it to unicode it would be great to know
that now.
Both of these stack show examples of how to read and write utf-8 files.
