Make the form input tags look like this: <input name="mystring:utf-8:ustring" /> then you'll be certain to get it into Zope as unicode under utf-8. 2008/6/26 Garry Saddington <garry@schoolteachers.co.uk>:
I am using Zope 2.9 connected to a Posgres DB via psycopg. My database encoding is UTF8.
I am getting the following error when users try to insert text in the database containing £ signs:
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xa3
This is due to the encoding of a £ sign in the text being sent to the DB.
My question then is how do I make sure that all encodings submiitted from forms are in the correct UTF8 format?
Regards
Garry
