question about characters

Hi,

I’m using webyep “Short Text” field and I want to add some french text. The problem is that it doesn’t recognize the ë â and some other characters. Is there a way to fix this?

Hi david, i assume that you have tried ALT + 0226 and ALT + 0235? But for french you also can try ALT + 131 and ALT + 137

Hope it is something.

Kind regards
Chris

WebYep has a setting that puts it into UTF-8 mode, and you’ll have to
search the documentation or this list to find it. Once you do, also
make sure that the page you have inserted the WebYep control into is
also set to Unicode in the Output tab of the Page Inspector. The
default is Automatic, and while that should default to UTF-8, it very
often does not.

Another option might be to type DIRECT into HTML? Here are the following codes for your letters:

â (226)

ë (235)

The numbers in parentheses are the numeric codes that are used in Unicode.

Again I am stabbing in the dark because I have no idea what webyep is all about…ugh Mmm…

Oh Rats they have appeared translated. Here is what I actually typed, but I have had to place spaces in between so that the forum does not translate the html code back into the letters again.

Should have read: & a c i r c;
and & e u m l;

WebYep has a setting that puts it into UTF-8 mode…

It’s part of the config-inc.php file. Simply add UTF-8 between the quotes of this line: $webyep_sCharset = “”
