Hi
This may be a very silly question but...
I have two gadgets one with an XML declaration as UTF-8 and the other as
iso-8859-1. Both have the ModulePreds title set to Iñtërnâtiônàlizætiøn. Both
files are correctly saved - as UTF-8 and iso-8859-1 respectively.
In the case of the the UTF-8 one the metadata service returns the title with
all the non-asci characters encoded as html unicode points e.g. \u00f8.
In the case of the iso-88590-1 the metadata service returns Itrntinliztin -
that is the title with the non-asci characters simply stripped out.
Does this mean that Shindig / the Gadgets spec simply does not support
character encodings other than UTF-8? The google docs say "Gadgets are
specified in XML. The first line is the standard way to start an XML file." -
giving a UTF-8 example. But this does not answer the question.
Thanks
Justin
