DFP and Codepage problems

Hi,

I’m using DigitalFilePro 1.1.3 and DataAssist 2.0.8 in ASP.
I’m using also DWCS5 and MsSQL2005.

All my pages use UTF8 enconding.
In the top of my page i have the following statement :
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="65001"%>
And I changed the statement to the top of file: HelperUploadVB.asp
From: session.codepage = 1252
To: session.codepage = 65001

In a form of my page I have for example four fields.

MenuItemName
MenuItemDescription
MenuItemICOfilePath
MenuItemImagePath.

Two NVARCAR strings and two text fields.

When i type the fields in MenuItemICOfilePath and MenuItemImagePath, the paths of ico and image all is allright.

When I try to use the DFP ext, the files uploaded, but the MenuItemName, and MenuItemDescription is stored in wrong codepage characters.

I used do the same thinks many times in the past in older versions.

Thank you in advanced.
I&#8217;m looking forward for an answer.

make sure the meta tag on your page ois also set to utf-8:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />


Also, see the following article on the Microsoft site:

Thank you for your reply.
The meta tag on my page:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

I read the microsoft article.

Any idea ?

if the code page and the meta tag are correct, you need to follow the advice in the article for setting the database to take UTF8 data. If the page is passing the data as UTF8, but it is not storing properly in the database, it is a database configuration issue.

Hi Jason.
When used
Request.Form() to get the fields values all is working perfect.

When used
WA_DFP_UploadObj.Form() then the problem appears.

My Database, Table and field Collation : Greek_CI_AI

Please send me an angel.

can you send a copy of your page and the HelperUploadVB.asp page so I can investigate further.

Hello Jason.
&#921;t is difficult to work together, because when I am sleeping you are working and when I am working you are sleeping. :-)


I Send you a Zip file containing :
HelperUploadVB.asp file,
a screenshot of my application (ScreenShot.jpg),
a screenshot of MsSQLserver 2005 with the columns of the table (FamilyTable-Columns-Config.jpg),
and a screenshot of the data of that table (FamilyTable-Data-ScreenShot.jpg),
and the update page. (Families_Update.asp)

Thanks for trying to help me.

If you have a problem opening the zip file, open the WINZIP application and then through WINZIP open the file that I sent you.

Thank you.
