Special characters when editing

In a text area that others will be editing, I've used Ὕ for a non-breaking hyphen in the original source created in Dreamweaver. I'm wondering how an editor will enter a non-breaking hyphen. I use a Mac, but I've read that on a PC it can be entered with Alt+2011. Will that hold through future loads and saves of that page? I've seen what InContext does to the code when a page is edited and saved. Seems it's just rearranged, but I wonder if those special characters will hold.

I solve my problem, with Sap Help.
They send me: check the charset settings on client & J2EE as follows
On Client side: Internet Explorer menu > Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced
please select 'Always send URLs as UTF-8'.
On J2EE engine: . It is important to check the parameter exists for all server nodes in config tool
-Dhtmlb.useUTF8=X
-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1
-Dfile.encoding=UTF8

Problem with special characters when calling web services via ISG

Hi all,
I have a problem when trying to send or retrieve strings containing some special characters via Integrated SOA Gateway.
For example, when I call a PL/SQL function via ISG that returns a string containing curling single and double quote characters, these are not represented by valid XML character entity references. So when trying to open the response XML (returned by ISG) in a browser, I get a parser error...
Has anybody had a similar experience with ISG? How can I resolve that - is it an ISG bug?
Thanks
Carolin

Special characters when reply to an email

hello,
When i reply to an e-mail address with special characters, it cuts the e-mail address in half. For example: Richárd.décharté[email protected] . it cuts the word where the special character is typed so you can’t reply. Or you have to type the whole emailadres by yourself.
Is there a way to solve this? This is on the iPad and iPhone 4 with newest iOs version
thanks in advance

Cannot read out loud special characters when text is french

Hi everyone,
First of all, I hope my english is on par for your understanding. I speak french as first language and we use the French installation of our Adobe products.
Working in the IT department, our clients working in the communications department currently use Acrobat pro X on Mac 10.8 to make accessible PDFs. Before I reinstalled their iMacs with a fresh copy of 10.8, they were working on OSX 10.6, also with Acrobat Pro X. They didn't have the following issue.
Since the fresh 10.8 install, they cannot use the read out loud function properly. As you may know, with french language comes the use of special characters. Lots of them. But Acrobat will not read out loud any sentence or paragraph having special characters like " é, à, ù, è" and such.
I first contacted Adobe, a few weeks ago, through their Live chat function, about this problem. They addressed the issue by stating that they do not support Acrobat X on 10.8. I had to reinstall Acrobat using version XI in order to receive support. Fortunately, I was able to download the correct version and use it in trial mode. Unfortunatly though, I still had the same issue. It seems that I no longer have access to Live chat, so I turn to you all for help.
Also, I have a French voice pack in OSX and when I use the Voiceover function in OSX, outside of Acrobat, the system reads out loud any accents or special characters like it should. This is mainly why I associated the issue with Acrobat and not OSX.
If you need clarifications, ask away and I will get back as soon as possible.
Thank you for your time.

Used your sentence "TTS is closed October 9th." in a Word file and output a tagged PDF via PDFMaker.
Added Alt Text for the tag that was the parent for the container holding the text string.
ROL with Acrobat 9 Pro and Acrobat X Pro spoke the entered Alt Text.
In short, could not duplicate what you've described.
Perhaps an Acrobat repair or processing any outstanding updates could resolve things.
Or a return to the structure tree may be in order. Look for what is amiss there.
Be well...

Problems with special characters when exporting to LDAP

Hi,
Im using standard report RPLDAP_EXTRACT to export data to LDAP. The problem is that the special characters (in this case polish letters) do not save correctly (we get for instance '?' instead of normal letter)
I tried switching the configuration of the RFC destination (used: 'found communication Code Page option') but I get a message: "Your selection is restricted" and cannot make any changes.
Can anyone please help in this matter?
Regards,
Hubert

1) Your database should be able to handle and properly store all the supported charactersets needed. With UTF you are in the clear regarding storing all that kind off idfferent characters
See http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm
2) The recieving party (the cleint software) hopefully has a character set that supports all the characters that are offered by the database and can encode them. If not then you get toe upside down question markt or dark squares or something alike. If the client software is a browser, for instance windows internet explorer, then most encoding settings are buildin and you only have to switch. Sometimes you will have to add extra language support on Windows Internet Explorer. This behaviour is also the same on thick clients. Oracle by default sets these parameters in the registry, but on windows the can be overrulled on several levels like on system level, user level (start --> settings -- control panel --> system --> advanced tab --> environment settings) and or during execution via a app. configuration file or an export of the system variable on the command prompt... A unified business approach for how to handle this is needed otherwise you will have too look for these kinds off issues always all over the place (on windows and/or linux etc).
Have a look at Mark's example of how things work regarding UTF and the like on the FAQ URL on this forum and the URL as show above. If completely lost, you will have to read up on it in the Oracel globalization / NLS manuals and see what is appropriate / can be done in your environment.

Problem with special characters (&) when printing using XSL-FO ...

Hello everybody !!
I have a problem when I want to print a Report with a link to a URL where the character "&" is present :
I want to have something like : src="file:///...webfile?param1=val1*+_&_+*param2=val2"
In my XSL-FO file, I wrote : src="file:///...webfile?param1=<xsl:value-of select="IDARTICLE"/>*+_<xsl:text>&</xsl:text>_+*param2=<xsl:value-of select="MARQUE"/>"
When I try this only with FOP, it works. However, when I upload the XSL-FO file to ApEx, it says my PDF file is corrupted when I want to open it.
What do I have to put the '&' symbol when I want to print the Report ??
Could anyone help me ??
Thanks by advance,
Pierre C.

I believe this relates to something I have actually found in my own testing.
It is probably due to the Template not being URLEncoded prior to transmission to the FOP processor.
I actually determined that special URL characters, like '+' and '&', are lost on transmission because the type of submission is POST with x-www-form-urlencoded, but the fields are not actually encoded entirely. The XML Element contents are encoded prior to transmission in order to preserve data.
Work around would be to URLEncode the template as it sits in the WWV_FLOW_REPORT_LAYOUTS. I have been able to successfully get around the problem by doing that.

How to preserve 2-byte characters when "Edit Link" ?

Keynote 6.2.2 will remove any 2-byte characters presented in the hyperlink of an object.
However, the previous version doesn't have the problem.
Since internationalized domain names are getting popular, I hope Apple can fix the bug soon.

after google a brunch, I learned that javac (hence java.exe) does not support BOM (byte order mark).
I had to use a diff editor to save my text file as unicode without BOM in order for native2ascii to convert into a ascii file.
Even the property file is in ascii format, I'm still having trouble to display those character in dos console. In fact, I just noticed I can use system.out.println to display double byte character if I embedded the character itself in java source file:
public class Run {
     public static void main(String[] args) throws UnsupportedEncodingException{
          String msg = "中文";    //double byte character
                try{
                System.out.println(new String(msg.getBytes("UTF-8")) + " new string"); //this displays fine
                catch(Exception e){}
                Locale locale = new Locale("zh", "HK");
          ResourceBundle resource = ResourceBundle.getBundle("test.MessagesBundle", locale);
                System.out.println(resource.getString("Hey"));      //this will display weird characterso it seems like to me that I must did something wrong in the process of creating properties file from unicode text file...

Replacing Special Characters when writing to a file

I am using the following to replace Muñoz (the ñ with null) . It should output as Muoz.
This should be simple but it is not working. 209 and 241 represent the upper and lower case ñ.
This statement is in a CFFILE. I am generating the file but the ñ is still there.
replace(LGL_NM,chr(209)&chr(241),'3','all')
I also tried the following without success:
<cfset x = ReplaceNoCase(#Object_query.LGL_NM#,"#chr(209)#", " ", "all")>
<cfset LGL_NM = ReplaceNoCase(x,"#chr(241)#", " ", "all")>
Please Help.
Thanks!
Bill

I mean on the page itself, in the meta tag. Not sure if it's what's causing the difference though.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

Trouble with Special Characters

I am having trouble adding special characters when typing! I went to help, and found out how, in theory, to insert them by going to the characters palette, but when I click edit/special characters, or when I go Fonts and click special characters on the drop-down menu in the lower left corner, nothing happens. Simply nothing at all. Do I somehow just not have this feature? Why wouldn't I have it, and how can I fix it so that I do? Please help!

Dreamweaver still encodes special characters in URL - Bug?

Dreamweaver 6 is still encoding my special characters when I enter a URL through the control panel AND hit enter. When I paste the link in code view or just paste it in the control panel Link field without hitting Enter, no formatting occurs.
I have the setting under Code Rewriting in Preferences set to "Do not encode special characters", but regardless the reformatting occurs whenever I hit enter in the Link field in the Control Panel.
For example:
The link I'm pasting in is a dynamic one and is set to %%DC%%
If I just paste the link into the control panel then click elsewhere the link is set and no formatting occurs. If I paste it in, then hit Enter the URL changes to %Ü%%
Is this a bug or am I doing something incorrectly?

I just tried it and it's happening in both.
How it's occuring to me:
- Open a new or old document.
- Type in a random set of letters, highlight, then click inside in the Link field on the Control Panel
- Type %%DC%%
- Click off the random set of letters, and in code view the Link is still set to %%DC%% (so far so good)
Now if you click back onto the random letters that are now linked, you'll see that the URL in the Link field now changes to %Ü%%, but the actual link in Code View remains %%DC%%.
- Now click inside the link field in the control panel, but don't type or change the URL.
- Click somewhere else to move the cursor out of the control panel
- The link is now set to %Ü%% in both Code View and in the control panel

Read in xml special characters

Hi,
I have PL/SQL block to read in a xml file from a URL. I manage to store it perfectly fine. The problem is that I have problems reading in special characters when selecting the view. Any help please? Here is my code:
DECLARE
req utl_http.req;
resp utl_http.resp;
myvalue blob;
myclob blob;
feedtype number;
BEGIN
Select id into feedtype
from feednames
where name = 'EA';
req := utl_http.begin_request('http://cput-ep ap04.work.com:8852/test/gne.xml');
resp := utl_http.get_response(req);
LOOP
utl_http.read_line(resp, myvalue, TRUE);
myclob := myclob || convert(myvalue, 'UTF8', 'WE8ISO8859P1');
END LOOP;
utl_http.end_response(resp);
commit;
EXCEPTION
WHEN utl_http.end_of_body THEN
utl_http.end_response(resp);
Delete from feeds where id = feedtype;
insert into feeds values (feedtype,xmltype(myclob));
commit;
END;
The view that I have created is:
create or replace view GM as
select
extractvalue(value(d), '/article/@article_id') id,
extract(value(d), '/article/@article_title').getclobval() title,
extractvalue(value(d), '/article/@article_descrip') description
from feeds x,
table(xmlsequence(extract(x.DATA_XML, '/article_elements/article'))) d where x.ID = 7

How about some sample data? The Url you gave has a space in it and is not public available. What's the error message you got?

Problem in reading special characters

Hi friends
I am doing one program which read serial port data (for bar code reader) using java application.
My program is working well and reading serial data but it is not displaying special characters.When i read through hyperterminal i can see all special characters but when see data throught the output of java program these special characters are missing...
I don't know i am doing something wrong in stream or ???
My code is
[CODE]public void serialEvent(SerialPortEvent event) {
          System.out.println("before serialEvent");
          StringBuffer readBuffer1 = new StringBuffer();
          switch (event.getEventType()) {
          case SerialPortEvent.OUTPUT_BUFFER_EMPTY:
               System.out.println("Data empty:");
               break;
          case SerialPortEvent.DATA_AVAILABLE:

Hi DrClap,
Thanks for your reply.
That article was helpful in understanding character conversions. And it works fine for JSPs.
But when I tried to apply the same in JSF it does not work. May be this is not the right forum to dicuss JSF related things. But if you know how pageEncoding and contentType can be mentioned in JSF. I am using myfaces and I have tried <h:form id="SearchForm" acceptCharset="UTF-8" accept="text/html;charset=UTF-8">. Didnt work....
