Hi,
I have two problem concerning utf-8 character encoding in maypole 2.05
(svn head).
Here is problem 1, I'll send problem 2 in another mail as it's
something completely different.
I'll illustrate the problem using the beerdb-example. The Encoding in
th application is set to utf-8 (maypole default). I point my browser
to
http://localhost/beerdb/beer/list/
and enter the character "ä" in the "Name"-field in the "Add a new
beer"-form and press the "create"-button.
the new page
http://localhost/beerdb/beer/do_edit/
shows title with "ä" and "Name: ä" (everything ok)
Then I press "edit" and it shows:
Edit ä (ok)
Name: À (not ok)
The HTML source ist:
Name:</span><textarea name="name">ä</textarea>
This is not ok. The two-byte sequence has been encoded as two seperate
1-byte charactes.
A SELECT from database shows correct utf-8 char "ä" (À) inserted into
database
I had a look into Class::DBI::AsForm and it does something like this:
use HTML::Element;
print HTML::Element->new("textarea", name =>
"lala")->push_content("À")->as_XML;
<textarea name="lala">ä</textarea>
There is the bug again.
when I try this, it works:
use HTML::Element;
use utf8;
print HTML::Element->new("textarea", name =>
"lala")->push_content("À")->as_XML;
<textarea name="lala">ä</textarea>
But adding "use utf8;" to BeerDB.pm did not help.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Regards, Kester.
