Special Characters not presenting properly

All of a sudden my (not so) Special Characters are not being rendered properly.  Much of the website is in German, hence a lot of umlauts.
With yesterday's upload the umlauts now look like this:
Zurück, instead of Zurück,
für, instead of für,
Schömberg, instead of Schömberg, etc.
Ignore the Link highlighting.
Here is a Link to a sample:

  • French special characters not displayed properly in discoverer 11g

    Gurus
    We are upgrading to discoverer 11.1.1.3
    I have found that French special characters (letters with accents) are not displayed properly in the discoverer tool menu.
    Example
    Sélectionner is displayed as S?lectionner.
    This doesn't seem to be a server issue as one of the tester (in U.S) is able to see the french characters displayed and ironically it is not the case in France itself where this is required.
    Please help
    Regards
    Ariv

    Pl post details of the two clients being used in this scenario - the exact OS version, browser version, browser language settings, Java version etc
    Since the accented character shows on one client , the issue is with the client or the settings on the client where the accented character is not showing correctly.

  • Special French characters not displaying properly

    Hi:
    I am using Weblogic 9.2, struts 1.2, JDOM,and ejb.
    I read special characters from the properties files using struts but when I assigned it to xml tags(JDOM elements) it is not showing properly in the xml tags.
              Element header = new Element("header");
              while(elementListItor.hasNext())
                   Element child = (Element)elementListItor.next();

    Hello,
    If you are displaying the report output as a PDF output then you need to make sure that:
    -NLS_LANG is set to French
    -the fonts used in the report are installed on the PC
    -the characters are stored correctly in the database
    -PDF subset is configured

  • Special characters not showing

    Hello, I am having a strange problem with showing special characters in the browser when I upload the site. (its fine when I view it on localserver)
    For example on my website: http://www.reese-test2.co.uk/
    if you do a search for example: 3GLG534WW - instead of seeing the degree symbol there is a �
    it should read 35° beam angle not  35� beam angle
    I know i could go through all 500 products and change the beam angle character on my SQL database to:   35&deg;
    But surely there is an easier way? This being a lighting website for my work I have other special characters that will also show up weird, so would be good if there was an easy fix to this. I am using WAMP, and DW CS6.
    Is there a line of code I can add to my results.php page that will force the characters to show properly?
    thanks
    Sara

    Hi Just thought I would update this post. My server provider said they cannot change the character set due to how they were set up, so had to do a find/replace in PHPmyAdmin - (SQL tab) instead.
    Ken thanks for your idea. This didnt initially work for me, so googled it and had to make a couple of changes to the code, but this then worked. "Replace" needs to be in caps and the brackets removed.
    Original:
    update [table_name] set [field_name] = replace([field_name],'[° ]','[&deg;]');
    Correct:
    UPDATE productsearch SET description = REPLACE (  description,  ‘°’,  ‘&deg;’);
    thanks for your help Ken Binney

  • Accented characters not encoded properly in Mail since 10.6

    Messages I type that contain accented or otherwise special characters appear fine as long as I'm typing them but get re-encoded in a way that is unreadable by recipients AND by me. I.e, if I go to my Sent folder and check such messages, all accented characters have become unreadable.
    I don't remember ever having that problem with 10.5
    It also does not seem to be a systematic issue. I think I have it more when answering to a message or when transferring a message, as if Mail used the encoding method of the initial sender.
    Anyone else has this problem?

    The general approach at this time is to ask if you've checked for any problematic fonts (all languages) with Apple's Font Book (look in the Applications folder). Find and remove all duplicates also.
    Start there to be sure all fonts that are in play come out with a clean bill of health.
    Don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come from Office 2008, including those related to an Equation Editor installation.
    By all means be sure any 3rd party apps AND plug-ins are Snow Leopard compatible.
    An additional measure is to clear the existing font caches:
    http://www.macworld.com/article/139383/2009/03/fontcacheclear.html
    That said, 10.6.2 release notes have this to say about fonts:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3874
    Fonts fixes provided for:
    • an issue with font spacing
    • an issue in which some Fonts are missing
    • font duplication issues
    • an issue with some PostScript Type 1 fonts not working properly
    Good luck in any case.

  • German Special Characters not displayed correctly in RTF  using code

    Hi ,
    In my code we are using webdynpro method
    WDResourceFactory.createResource(
    byte[] data, String resourceName,WDWebResourceType
    Type)
    Here in our code we are implementing this as
    ITemplateElement templateEl = wdContext.currentTemplateElement();
    WDResourceFactory.createResource(
    templateEl.getReportData(),
    reportName.substring(0, reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
    WDWebResourceType.RTF); reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
    Here templateEl.getReportData() returns a set of bytes which has some
    german special characters.
    We are generating the Bytes using String.getByes(),Just before
    String text = new String(in);
    collector.putBusinessObject(boName, bo);
    reportDocTemplateParser(collector, text);
    collector.removeBusinessObject(boName);
    String generatedText = collector.generateRTF();
    out = (null != generatedText) ? generatedText.getBytes() : null;
    The out put is the if i am giving a word with german special characters for eg:
    Betriebsübersichten it first gets converted to bytes and then passes through method WDResouseFactory.createResourse(.....) which creates an RTF file and finally in the RTF file it appears as Betriebsbbersichten the special character is not displayed correctly.
    i came to knw that while converting into bytes we have to make it RTF supported encoding.ie for eg generatedText.getBytes('cp1252').i even tried with other charactersets like ISO-8859,cp1253 and so on but none of them worked.
    It would be really great if you could suggest the needful.
    Thanks and Regards

    I soved this by using get_data function of response object. Then converting this into ISO-8859-1 charset.
    See code below.
    DATA :  lv_encoding   TYPE abap_encoding,
              lv_conv       TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce,
              lv_x_string   type xstring.
      lv_x_string = pv_http_client->response->get_data( ).
        lv_encoding = '1100'.
        lv_conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create(
                              encoding = lv_encoding
                                 input = lv_x_string ).
        lv_conv->read( IMPORTING data = pv_result ).

  • Unicode Characters not displaying properly after updating to 13.0.1+

    Previously, I had installed the Symbola font because certain symbols were not displaying properly in Firefox (notably on Twitter). Installing the font solved the problem for the most part (the four bit hex characters still didn't show up, but the six bit ones did).
    After updating to 13.0.1 the other day, the six bit hex codes do not show the correct symbol anymore with Symbola still installed. I even deleted Symbola from my fonts, redownloaded it (a newer version, no less), installed it, and opened Firefox, and it did not solve the issue. Like the 50 million other things that Firefox broke with the update to 13. -_-
    EDIT: This issue has since persisted with 14.0.1.

    Try to install the DejaVu font.

  • Special Characters Not Displaying at Logon Screen

    Hello, my daughter set her password on her iPad using special characters and has been able log in  by holding down a certain letter on the keyboard and choosing a latin character.  This is no longer working as the popup menu doesn't appear when holding down on letters anymore.  She recently updated it to iOS8, but claims that she was able to log in at least a few time since the update.
    Is there any trick to making these special character menus appear again?  Thanks so much.

  • Webservice: Special characters not displayed correctly

    Hi,
    I'm facing a problem when retrieving informations via a webservice. I'm able to use it and data is retrieved but when there are special characters into the response they are not displayed correctly. Repsonse of the webservice is XML formatted.
    It seems to be a charcter set problem, strange thing is that the response is ISO-8859-1 formatted, this charset should normally display special characters like (é à ...) correctly.
    In my code I simply use an if_http_client object to use the webservice.
    pv_result = pv_http_client->response->get_cdata( ).
    Xml repsonse :
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
    <![CDATA[Eetcaf�/Steakhuis Baskent]]>
    Should be Eetcafé
    How can I specify a charset for the response object?
    I did the same in .NET, where I can bypass this issue specifying the charset like this.
    Dim reader As New StreamReader(oResponse.GetResponseStream(), System.Text.Encoding.Default)
    Thanks a lot for your help.

  • Using XML with special characters - not rendering

    Hello,
    I am using xml to populate the content of a Flash file, but
    we have localized content for different global regions. So, when
    the content contains special characters like "é" they do not
    show up at all in the flash. I tried using &eacute; but that
    just renders the actual code...
    Is there a workaround for this?
    Thanks

    Hi Rothrock, thanks for your reply...
    Flash Version: 8, but the swf was published to be 7+
    compatible.
    The font is Meta Normal, it is embedded, and it does include
    the character.
    I am retrieving the xml by using this script in the html
    page:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    // <![CDATA[
    var fo = new FlashObject("/templates/flash/index.swf" +
    cKiller, "ad-flash", "710", "351", "7", "#FFFFFF");
    fo.addVariable("xmlURL", "/flash_content/products.xml");
    fo.write("ad");
    // ]]>
    </script>
    I am creating the XML using Macromedia Homesite, with the
    encoding declaration <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    The XML is being read fine, only the special characters don't
    show up... so it will cut off the word, or just have an empty space
    where the character should be.
    I am not sure how to specifiy Extended Latin charset in the
    document... could you tell me how to do that?
    Thanks

  • Thai characters not showing properly

    Hi,
    When creating a product catalog in thai language the characters do not show properly. The characters have small aspects attached to them that hover above as you can see here http://www.gte-premium.com but when editing in Indesign the small aspects that are meant to hover above overlap the portion of the character below and are not aligned left to right properly.
    I have tried every thai-friendly font I can find but this does not fix the problem, how can I amend this?
    Thanks in advance

    If you're using a well-made font, you can probably get the tone marks to behave by turning on the World-Ready Composer. It's exposed in InDesign CC and CS6, in the Paragraph menu I think, but if you're using an earlier version of InDesign it's a hidden feature that you would need to use a script or a plugin to turn on.

  • E72: Swedish and other special characters not work...

    When I send mail through MfE, swedish and other special characters do not reach the recipient, they are just ignored. No blanks or nothing. Every word with a swedish character ends up one letter short.
    Before the firmware upgrade this was intermittent, happening only on about half of my mails.
    Now I upgraded yesterday, and it seems the problem is now permanent.
    Have seen similar posts from E75 and E90 owners, their problems seem to have been fixed by newer firmware.
    Our setup is: Exchange 2003, Portwise authentication.
    All other phone models work fine, like iPhone, E71 etc.
    /Sebastian

    After some testing I found out that if I use swedish chars in the subject line, it works fine. Even in the mail body.
    If I don't use swedish chars in the subject, they won't work in the body. I either get garbage or nothing where the swedish chars should be.
    The problem doesn't exist at all in my private IMAP mail account.
    Could someone who uses Mail for Exchange and have special chars in their alphabet (swedish, finnish, german, hungarian etc) pls tell me how it's working out for you?
