Hi again,
I found a solution (or part of it): obviously the strings must be
modified in the validate button by the TextToHtml function before
saving. That will change the extended ascii characters to their "entity"
formats, (eg. ä = ä
which should work in html text regardless of
platform. And then again with HtmlToText when the data is retrieved and
entered in the entry/display fields in the page initialization code.
The text string fields obviously cannot have any input mask, because
none of the available ones allow a free entry of "extended ascii
characters".
Or is there a simpler way? Maybe some kind of character set setting in
the php.ini file, or in Webdev itself?
Could I hear some comments on this problem from experienced users of
Webdev + PHP -- surely most of you need to be able to enter some non-US
alphabets, at least most non-English speaking users. Or, is the PHP
generation actually just a half-baked filler in the sales brochures,
really a non-useable feature in Webdev?
Best regards
Ola
