Special characters are not showing properly in FF.

I am developing an website where user can input special characters like '¥' or '╩' like this. I have to store these value to DB and wold display it from DB. When I try to fetch these value from DB, it looks like '�'. I am using <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> in my jsp page. This is working fine in Chrome, problem occurs with FF only. Please help.

Are you serving the page fully formed, or inserting the characters into the page from an XMLHttpRequest? Could you post a link to a page demonstrating the problem?

Reg:special characters are not priniting while selecting the CS language

Hi All,
When I am trying to print in CS language some special characters are not printing.
Even when I was trying to create the entries in TTDGT table ,these special characters are not created
( příkazu) here r & i are the special characters. instead of special characters simply r and i were created .
Could you please advice me on this how to resolve this .
Regards,
S.chaitanya.

Hello Chaitu,
I think you are working on scripts and trying to create the Script in different language?
However, try to copy the text in CS and paste it in STandard Text. If it is not displaying properly then Try to log in to the same language and try to paste that Text in the STanard text So10. If it appears properly then your issue is fixed.
Please let me know if the issue is while printing the Script form, i mean are you able to view it properly in the Print preview...?
If this is the issue then it is not an issue at your end user needs to check whether his printer is supporting their langauge or not.
Also check with the related language package . for ex I had worked on the Script form and tried to convert it into chinese i faced the same issue so when i checked with the System Admin he installed Asian Langauge Package in my system. After that I was able to convert the script into Chinese properly.
Hope this will be helpful..
Regards,
Kittu

Special characters are not being displayed normally after recent update.

FF messed up with that recent update. Special characters are now not being displayed properly - they somehow stretch the whole line where they are posted. It was fine before
I.E.:

Here you can see what I mean (Opera & FF screenshots), Opera has no problems with them, see highlighted:

Which version were you using before?
Some font issues may be caused by graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You can disable it, but you might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
Does that make any difference?

Smartforms - Chinees characters are not displayed properly

Hi,
It is a printer issue. The printer needs to be configured to support the Chinese chanracter set.
Normally when we are able to view the chinese characters properly in the print preview but not properly displayed on the output it is surely a printer problem.
This kind of problem we faced many times.

German special characters are not returned from catalog

When the german special characters are part of the descrition of the article from the the catalog (external). ( reaching catalog from PM order components screen)
It returns '#' in place german special characters ö ('Umlet') . This is because of the initial charset from the HTML page. How do we get the correct charset of the loaded HTML page.
But when we execute the same through WTS the german characters are correctly returned but charset is incorrect. Can someone help me to resolve this?

Infotypes special characters are not displayed correctly

hi experts,
While entering names with special characters in infotypes it happens that some of them are not correctly displayed .
can you please help me out as soon as possible
thnx
harish

Thank you for your fast reply :)
The site is not online available unfortunately.
The character encoding used by Firefox is UTF-8 (automatically detected) which is correct. I even tried manually switching to other Chinese standards, but none of them brought a satisfieable result.
The site itself does not specify a font (the css only contains "font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Verdana;"), and the site does not provide a custom font either.
I noticed that if i copy and paste the text into word, the characters are wrongly displayed too using the font MS Mincho (so I assume Firefox automatically selects this font to display the characters which would explain why they are displayed incorrectly)
Ah, I now included the font "SimSun" in the css (which is installed on in windows and using this font the characters are displayed correctly in word) - and this solved he problem!
Thanks for your help!!

Japanese and Russian characters are not displayed properly

I have a pdf file which has both russian and Japanese characters in it. Before I install Japanese font pack, the russian characters were displayed properly but for Japanese characters Junk characters are displayed. But once I installed Japanese font pack, Japanese fonts are displayed properly, but for Russian characters are displayed as junk characters. Please let us know if can display both font types simultaneously in a document or is there any work around for this ?

What is your Reader version?
If Reader X or earlier, did you also install the extended font pack?

The special characters are not loading. ?

For some reason the special characters stopped appearing when I click "Special Characters" under the Edit tab. I don't understand, and unfortunately in my academic work practically a third of the characters I have to use are these. Is there another way to access them or a problem that might be responsible? I already closed and restarted.
Thanks

NEVERMIND.
The window was already open but at the VERY EDGE, barely perceived, at the bottom so I had to grab it real fast before the icons popped up. Lesson learned.

Special characters are not displaying in ADF jsp page

Hi All,
By using ADF view controller,I am getting the data from database table but when I display the data in jsp page after special character < what ever the data is there it is not displaced.Provide any suggestions.
Thanks in Advance
Mani

Hi Mani,
< is a special HTML character and obviously it may not me displayed correctly.
Here is a reference of all HTML special characters: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_entities.asp
In your case you can replace < with its special symbol representation - *&#60; or &lt;*
I also advice you to do so for all special HTML characters.
You can use this Java library for that purpose : http://commons.apache.org/lang/api/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringEscapeUtils.html

Zip file with special chars are not unzipped properly

Hi all,
i have following problem: I want to unzip a zip file. In the zip file there is a file with a special character i.e. "straße". When i call now zipFile.getInputStream( entry ) null will be returned. What can i do? Thanks a lot
ZipFile zipFile = new ZipFile( file );
    Enumeration enumeration = zipFile.entries();
    while ( enumeration.hasMoreElements() )
      ZipEntry entry = ( ZipEntry ) enumeration.nextElement();
      if ( !entry.isDirectory() )
        InputStream in = null;
        OutputStream out = null;
        try
          in = zipFile.getInputStream( entry ); //<- Here null will be returned When i look at the entry the "ß" of "straße" is represented by á.

May be you need to specify an ecoding for ZipEntry that would allow special characters?

Fonts are not showing properly when opened through mail?

When sending a PDF via email the Frutiger font does not appear properly on an iPad or iPhone. When viewed on an iPhone all the text appears as gradient boxes and when viewing on an iPad font becomes too light to be legible. Is this a problem with the font in the iOS platform? I also tried opening the file in iBooks and got the same outcome.
