Problem with Spanish accented characters in some sites (e.g. "é" shows as "eacute")

Spanish accented vocals are not being shown correctly at some pages of a site that I use often (https-based online banking). Note that not all pages at that site show this problem.
On the problematic pages, all accented vocals are shown as a combination of the "&" character plus such vocal (unaccented) plus the "acute" string.
For example:
"Información" shows up as "Informaci&oacuten" ---> note that "ó" was replaced by "&oacute"
"Débitos" shows up as "D&eacutebitos" ---> note that "é" was replaced by "&eacute"
I tried many Unicode & Western character encoding options, including UTF-8 which is my default option, with no improvements (actually, using any encoding option different from UTF-8 breaks those pages that previously worked fine at that site).
Note that this happened even before I installed the DownThemAll! extension.
Internet Explorer does not present this problem.
Thanks for your support.

It is possible that those entities are in the page code as & or that they are missing a closing ';'

  • Problems with Greek accented characters

    After the update to AIR 2.0.2 I cannot input into any application greek with accented characters.
    Tried TweetDeck and Twhirl and neither work (used to before the update)
    Is this a bug or it needs some configuration
    I am working on Fedora13 but heard the same problem reported on Ubuntu.
    Have not tried on MS Windows or MacOSX

    Hi,
    I'm using Adobe AIR 2.0.3 on Windows machine. I wrote an app in Aptana Studio (build: 2.0.5.1278522500) with ExtJS library and I found the problem with polish national characters like ż and Ż (all the other national characters like ą, ę, ń are possible to input).
    In order to reproduce, here you have the sample code in ExtJS:
    http://dev.sencha.com/deploy/dev/examples/form/anchoring.html
    As you will see - it is possible to input ż and Ż in text fields.
    Now, use the same code to build AIR applicaton and then run the application. It is not possible to input those characters in Air window. Right Alt+z acts like undo operation - it removes last entered text. All the other characters work fine.
    Here is the code I used:

            width: 500,
            height:300,

            layout: 'fit',

            bodyStyle:'padding:5px;',

        window.show();
            </script>
        </head>
        <body>
        </body>
    </html>
    Is it possible to input those characters or is there a workaround for this (disable undo operation or so) ?
    I really appreciate any help.
    Kind regards,
    Marcin.

  • Problems with input accented characters after moving JInitiator to JDK 1.5

    After upgrading from JInitiator 1.3.1.18 to JDK 1.5.0_06 (jdk plugin in IE), the input of accented characters (in our case portuguese) isn't working anymore in text areas on the forms (Forms 10g).
    So, if you push first the "´" key and then the "a" key, you should get as result "á" (worked correctly with JInitiator), but after upgrading to JDK 1.5 you will get simply a letter "a".
    Pressing Alt + 160 shows correctly "á".
    Somebody can give a clue about this problem please?
    Downgrading again to JInitiator is no option for us, as we need a more modern JVM (for a Dicom viewer applet we developed), and IE crashes if you have an Oracle form running with JInitiator, and then try to open another IE page with an applet requesting JVM 1.5 ...
    Thanks a lot for your comments.

  • Problems with spanish accents

    my messages in Spanish are NOT well received at PC computers. Strange symbols come out. Any tips?
    Gracias

    As a result of history of Windows, which started as a GUI add-on to MS-DOS, Windows GUI applications work in a different code page than the console (Command Prompt) applications. The former use a Windows code page -- it is code page 1252 for Western European languages. The latter use the so called OEM (aka DOS) code page. This code page is 437 on US Windows and 850 on Western European Windows. Oracle names for the mentioned 3 code pages are WE8MSWIN1252, US8PC437, and WE8PC850, correspondingly. Therefore, the cited recommendation assumes GUI applications. For console applications, like SQL*Plus 11g, you need to override the NLS_LANG setting from Registry using the NLS_LANG environment variable in the environment of the particular application.

  • Mail with French / Spanish accented characters appear as Question marks

    Hi
    I am facing issues in mails that have French / Spanish accented characters in mail subject.Accented characters appear as Question marks (?) when received in the inbox.Mail subject is read from properties file.
    Please let me know the following
    - Should I have the entries in properties file in Unicode ? For example French accent character � is represented as &#225;
    - Should I replace msg.setSubject(subject); to msg.setSubject(subject,"UTF-8");
    Please suggest.
    Below is code snippet :
         Session session = getSession();
                   // create a message
                   Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
                   // set the from and to address
                   InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress(from);
                   InternetAddress[] addressTo = new InternetAddress[recipients.length];
                   for (int i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++)
                        addressTo[i] = new InternetAddress(recipients);
                   msg.setFrom(addressFrom);
                   msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo);
                   msg.setSentDate(new Date());
    *               msg.setSubject(subject);*
                   MimeMultipart mp = new MimeMultipart("related");

    String subject = "\u00C 9tat de l'inscription en ligne";You need 4 hex digits after \u. You only included 3.
    mailSubject = new String(subject.getBytes(), "UTF-8");
    message.setSubject(MimeUtility.encodeText(mailSubject,"UTF-8", "B"), "UTF-8");Remove the above two lines. You're trying to make
    this much too hard. All you need is:
    message.setSubject(subject, "utf-8");
    Should I use ISO8859_1 as Charset or UTF-8 ?I think the characters you're included are
    representable in iso-8859-1 so you can use
    that.
    I am using Outlook express as my mail client. Do we have to decode it ?No.

  • Problem with Icelandic special characters on Mac

    Hello
    I am working on a Flash publication for students, and I want it to run on Mac as well as PC. Everything goes fine, except a problem with three special characters in my language, Icelandic. I am working on a registration and login page where I am using text boxes and text input boxes. Everything looks correct on PC, but on Mac the characters Þ Ð Ý are lost.
    I have tried different fonts etc.
    Any idea what is wrong?
    Jónas Helgason

    Hello Jónas,
    Did you ever figure this out ?
    I have a similar problem except only with two letters (both upper and lower case).  These two Icelandic letters can't be entered into a Flex TextInput box in the Flex apps I am creating when they are loaded on a Mac.  The letters are known as &Eth, &eth, &Thorn and &thorn in HTML terminology.  Typing these characters on the keyboard results in the following:  { [ ? /
    However I can copy the characters in question from some other app like TextEdit and paste them into a TextInput box in my Flex app and all is well, they show up correctly.
    This happens regardless of the Mac browser used and the Flash plugin version used (have tried both 9 and 10) and also happens in the standalone Flash Player application.
    Does anyone have any idea how to fix this or is this a bug in Flash Player ?  This is really annoying as it makes text input into Flex apps on Icelandic Macs very difficult.
    There must be something wrong with the mapping of keyboard key codes into character codes on the Mac that is causing this.
    Btw, I just heard from a friend that this problem does not exist in MacOS 10.6.  I am running 10.4 and have tested this on 10.5 and it exists on both of those OS versions.
    Rgds,

  • Problems with non-ASCII characters on Linux Unit Test Import

    I found a problem with non-ASCII characters in the Unit Test Import for Linux.  This problem does not appear in the Unit Test Import for Windows.
    I have attached a Unit Test export called PROC1.XML  It tests a procedure that is included in another attachment called PROC1.txt. The unit test includes 2 implementations.  Both implementations pass non-ASCII characters to the procedure and return them unchanged.
    In Linux, the unit test import will change the non-ASCII characters in the XML file to xFFFD. If I copy/paste the the non-ASCII characters into the Unit Test after the import, they will be stored and executed correctly.

  • TS3938 I have a problem with the CD player plays some species, others give me this letter no longer supported PowerPC

    I have a problem with the CD player plays some species, others give me this letter no longer supported PowerPC

    Educational software suffers from having been written many years ago, but the financial market is not such to give the publisher much incentive to update the software.
    The problem for you is that Top Notch 2 with ActiveBook was written and released by Pearson back when Macs utilized the PowerPC CPU platform.  In 2006, Apple migrated the Macs to Intel CPUs, but released their Operating Systems with an invisible translation program, Rosetta, so that the user could continue to use their existing library of PowerPC applications and take time to update them as needed.
    The problem arises in that Apple no longer continues to update Rosetta for inclusion in Lion and now Mountain Lion, so that your CD-ROM cannot be executed on your Lion Mac.
    Since Pearson looks unlikely to rewrite and release an Intel version of Top Notch 2, you must find a workaround that will play your CD-ROM and allow you to continue utilizing your ActiveBook.
    You do not indicate which model of Mac you are using.  If you upgraded it to Lion from Snow Leopard, you have these workarounds:
    1.  Revert to Snow Leopard
    2.  Partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it.  This will allow you to "dual-boot" into Snow Leopard when you need access to run Top Notch 2.  You would then have to "dual-boot" back into Lion when you needed access to those features required by Lion.
    If you purchased a new Mac that came with Lion, you only have one workaround available to run Top Notch 2: 
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels
                                  [click on image to enlarge]
    There is an easier way to run your Top Notch 2 in Parallels if cost is not a significant factor for you.  You must purchase Snow Leopard Server from a third party souce, such as eBay, which when sold by Apple was $499 or more.  I now see that it can be purchased on eBay for as little as $51.  Parallels allows for easy installation of Snow Leopard Server into Parallels.
    If cost is a factor, then use the link above the photo to follow my instructions on how to install Snow Leopard client ($19.99 from Apple) into Parallels and achieve the same result.
    Lastly, you could purchase a used Mac that will allow Snow Leopard to be the boot OS X installed (wth the optional Rosetta installed).  But this seems like an expensive alternative just to run one piece of software; and subject to hardware failure without notice or recourse.

  • Spanish Accented Characters creating problems - missing files, etc

    I am still working w/ iTunes 7.1.1.5 as I see no need to replace it for a different version. Throughout the history of this program I have noticed that it has trouble dealing with accent marks and characters that differ from that of the english alphabet. Can somebody help me figure out a work around?
    Out of all the searches and finds I made regarding this subject, I did not see anyone jumping in to help, I refuse to sit back and not look into this further!
    I would rather not have to turn an "í" into an "i" for iTunes to see my music, but *I also need to know how to get back all of the music that I know I lost due to this problem*, and also all the music that I don't know that could have been lost because of accent marks.
    Does the latest version of iTunes fix the problem? When did they address it?
    We need help!

    I really don't think the problem has much, if anything to do with iTunes, as I've had absolutely no problems with any of my files either on my Windows XP machine or on any of my Macs. Even Icelandic characters are handled perfectly well in all cases.
    What might have much more to do with the problem is the file format of your hard drive(s). If you're using something ancient such as FAT32, then expect problems such as this, and plan accordingly by using simple naming of your files. If you're using NTFS, things should be OK.

  • Spanish accent characters are not displayed proper in excel file

    Hi
    I have written a program which displays one report file (.xls file ) on the browser.
    This report file is in spanish language and contains few accent characters like
    ("� � � � � � �"). These characters are not displyed properly in that excel file which is opened in the browser. I have used utf-8 encoding method. I tried with some other encoding methods available. But still this problem continues.
    Kindly provide me help as soon as possible.
    Thanks and
    Regards,
    Deval

    File is generated through a java bean at runtime and it is not stored pgysically.
    If I copy these characters from somewhere to new xls file then it will be displayed properly.
    Sample code which is used for setting headers is as below:
         protected void setContentType (
              HttpServletResponse     p_response
         ,     InstanceData          p_instancedata
              p_response.setHeader ("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
              p_response.setHeader ("Cache-Control", "max-age=0");
              p_response.setHeader (
                   "Content-Disposition", "inline; filename="
              +      p_instancedata.userId
              +      "_"
              +      System.currentTimeMillis ()
              +     ".csv"
              System.out.println("Content generator = ");
              p_response.setHeader("charset","utf-8");
              p_response.setContentType (EXCEL_CONTENT_TYPE);
    For generating this xls file, format of data is XML. Means both request and response data will be in XML format.
    Hope this information help in suggesting any solution for this problem.
