I am having trouble displaying unicode characters on the browser.I am storing unicode data (Japanese, Chinese and Korean)in the native format. I have an ASP page that runs a query to get this data and display it on my webpage. But, the output comes as junk.
Any solutions for that.It is interesting for me that if i run the same query in
Enterprise Manager, i get the correct data whereas running it in the Query Analyzer gives me junk.
the text coming from the database seems to be ok but I have a problem with
the static text. I have this in asp files but I cannot save them as Unicode
because the ASP engine does not support it - the error is as follows:
"Active Server Pages, ASP 0239 (0x80004005)
UNICODE ASP files are not supported."
The Microsoft site says not to save files as Unicode ASP - which is not very
useful to me.
How can one have multilingual static text in websites?
I have a data base (SQLServer2K) with unicode fields and in my query analyzer, I am able to correctly insert Russian, Chinese characters & Co without problem and to read them with the query analyser (N powered). The problem is that I am not able to read them in an ASP page (I work in the mode Utf-8 because I must post Chinese, Russian & Co on the same page) from sql server : I've got "??????" on my page ASP.
if I want to insert Russian data for example from my ASP page. I do not have the same value in the field of my base whereas if I use the query analyzer and that I make a copy paste, it goes. On the other hand datas inserting by my asp page and read since my page ASP page are well displayed.
I'm trying to write a .txt file with OpenTextFile method. This is working
alright, but since I'm using some danish characters and use Flash to read
the txt file I need to save the file as UTF-8 or Unicode.
Beneath is my code - how do I save the file as UTF-8 or Unicode?
----
Dim fso, f, filespec
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
filespec = Server.Mappath("news.txt")
Set f = fso.OpenTextFile(filespec,2, True)
f.Write txtstring
f.Close

I use MSSQL2000 with nvarchar to store foreign language e.g. Simplified Chinese or Japanese and thse records can be well displayed via Query Analyzer.
Now, using asp to select record and display. It found that the code can be in "code". I put "<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset="utf-8">" in the page. but fail too. I also tried to change "decode" via IE with different code but fail.
I guess the problem that the unicode content is extracted from database but
wrongly decoded in page so the code is modified. How to force the displayed code from database to webpage is in Utf-8?
I have an asp application that should allow the user to enter Unicode characters.
The characters appear correctly in the browser. When saved in sql 2000 thought they are converted to question marks
etc.
When I enter the characters directly in SQL (using enterprise manager),
they appear correctly in sql as well as in the browser when the asp
page retrieves them.
As soon as I hit save they get overwritten in sql incorrectly.

View Replies View RelatedI have a web application designed to allow non-english characters to be entered in through a form, held in Access and displayed on another page.Each of my pages have the following meta tag:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
My problem is this: if I go to the data entry page and enter Unicode text in Netscape, the text displays ok -- in Netscape, not in IE. Conversely, when I enter Unicode text in IE, the text displays ok -- in IE, not in Netscape.I have been testing it by copying and pasting text from the Unicode.org page such as this one for Arabic:

why Unicode is being treated differently here?
I am writing a module for a cms system, the backend has been created in asp.net, however the frontend of the module has to be created in asp.

I am submitting a form to IIS 5.0, the CODEPAGE is set to 1252 and the
charset is 'iso-8859-1'.
I noticed that if I type information in a language different from English I
get data from the Request.Form collection in the following Unicode format:
'stגד', i.e English characters unchanged and other characters
coded as Unicode characters. If I change the charset to the one that matches
the language in which I am typing (without changing the CODEPAGE) I get the
data in the local character codepage code.
Is it possible to get the data from the Request.Form collection in a
consistent format, independent of the CODEPAGE and charset settings, i.e.
always in the 'גד' format?
I found this articel that says that Server.HtmlEncode will screw up unicode data. I'm using htmlencode on many pages and cannot see that data are corrupted.

View Replies View RelatedI have the following reference to an image in my web page. The name of the image is simply one Chinese character followed by .jpg.
<a HREF="transfer/rad0/﨨.jpg" TARGET="_blank">﨨.jpg</a>
The Chinese character is HTML encoded. I'm specifically setting UTF8 encoding w/codepage 65001 in each web page. When I right click this URL and attempt to download the image to disk, I get an error saying the web server can't locate the URL. In the error message, the Chinese character is displayed as ? (question mark). It works if the URL has only ASCII characters in it.
What do I need to do to be able to download images via URLs that contain Chinese (Unicode) characters?
I have an ASP page that I want to support multiple languages. If I set the
<%@ Language=VBScript CodePage=65001%>
and adds a
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
meta tag it seems to work OK. Now instead of setting the codepage in every
page I tried adding a global.asa (Session_onStart) file and add
session.codepage=65001 and also tried to add response.charset="utf-8" (I was
not allowed to set <%@ Language=VBScript CodePage=65001%> inside
global.asa). This does not seems to work though.
Is it possible to set a codepage in some event in a global.asa to make it
global for the entire application? Is it possible to add a directive in
global.asa that works like setting a <meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=utf-8">. If this is possible I don't have to
recomplie my business logic that creates the html.
I am having a problem with a forms entry using Unicode characters, specifically "smart-quotes". Under Microsoft PWS and MS-SQL 7.0 it works fine and I get the Unicode characters, such as smart-quotes, being written and read form the database. However, if I use the same code using Apache, Linux and SunONE ASP the Unicode characters don't
work! Code:
I'm using ASP, VBScript and SQL Server.
I'm also using UTF-8 character set and so my codepage is 65001 and SQL
Server datatype nvarchar.
I can insert unicode characters correctly into the database table using
INSERT.... (field1) ...VALUES ......... (N'Characters').
How do I do this using Rs.Update viz-a-viz:
Rs.Open .......
Rs.New
Rs("Field1") = "Characters"

it in a regular file. Code:
How do you convert Unicode into a character?
The first two examples result in a syntax error. The third example prints out the characters in the string.
ASPACE = Chr(u00A0)
ASPACE = ChrW(u00A0)
ASPACE = "u00A0"
I do realize
ASPACE = Chr(160)
works but I’d also like to be able to work with Unicode.
I'm trying to read data from an Access database and want the columns to be displayed
according to the alphabet. Now I'm trying the Like statement and passing the unicode value of the alphabet through the query but it retuns no value. An example is given below:
SELECT DISTINCT HindiWord FROM Database1 WHERE HindiWord LIKE 'अ%'
Here I'm trying to retrieve all the words with "A" alphabet in Devanagri script.
The HindiWord has data in a unicode font. However this is not working. I dont know if there is any other way in which I could filter when retrieving.
I have a few sets of unicode strings I am trying to display. I can display session variables with unicode strings from a XML file, but I can't display a unicode string coming from a DLL.
If I save the failing unicode string in a unicode file, I can view it fine,and the browser selects the encoding. The encoding it selects is unicode and not unicode (UTF-8).
IIS 6.0 ftp will replace unicode filename with '^'. If i have two unicode filename on the server, both will display as ^.txt, which after download to my local drive, it will overwrite one another. I have no control over the filename my visitors use.

I have a small website written in (very) basic .asp. I have it translated into a number of different languages that I want to post, but just now discovered that ASP does not support Unicode-encoded pages. (charset=UTF-8)
How does ASP deal with multiple language support, especially when the home page presents all of them as entry options? Is it better to simply rewrite as HTML? If so, how much of the ASP code can simply remain after the header and extensions are changed from ASP to HTML definition?
