Italian in form

dimis2500 · #1 (**permalink**) 06-23-06, 16:21

I have a problem retrieving italian or other languages characters from a form like é.
I send this form via email and I insert some values in a ms access database and at both cases I have problems with characters like é (an example from db: Chβteau ).
I use the code a=trim(server.htmlencode(reguest.form("value")) to retrieve values, I try also setting enconding 1252.
Is there a solution?

Code:

<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>

If you used it like this and it didn't work, maybe your meta tag is incorrect or in conflict

Code:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">

Also, is your database configured to accept these inputs?

The Server HtmlEncode should handle that, not sure why it's not...

Lemme know if this helped.
