Hi Ivan, you may want to try out the modifier url_quote eg: <dtml-var arbitrary_greek_text url_quote> HTH Tino Wildenhain Ivan Mackintosh wrote:
Hi,
What I want to do is to allow users to be able to enter greek/mathematical symbols into a textbox. I have managed to do this but get the following problem -
In the first dtml method the user clicks on a symbol button and that symbol is entered into the textbox. They then click on a submit button and the next dtml method is displayed.
This method simply does a <dtml-var REQUEST> so that I can see the value of the previous textbox. The symbol has changed!
On the first method I enter a lower case delta symbol and in the second I can see an 'a' with dots above it.
If I change my code so that instead of inserting a symbol into the textbox it inserts the code δ then when I get to the second dtml method the correct symbol is displayed. This is not very user friendly though.
Is there somekind of encoding variable set in Zope? as if I do the same code in straight html then it works fine.
Regards, Ivan
