Problems displaying swedish characters !

          Hi !
          I have a very strange problem, which I have been struggling with for a while now.
          I have a JSP page which calls Java classes to generate a HTML table. I define the
          basic structure of the table in the JSP file, such as which fields should be in it etc..
          The Java classes makes a call to an Oracle database and fetches the records in a
          recordset.
          On the JSP page I call a method which generates the HTML table from the recordset
          and returns a string to the page. I have a lot of swedish characters in some of the
          columns, and they display fine. At least when the table is not that big....
          Example:
          I populate the table with 24 records and swedish chars (åöä) looks ok, but when I
          populate the table with 25 records the swedish chars displays as jibberish.
          For example: 'ö' => 'Ã¶'
          What seems strange to me is that it looks like its depending on the amount of data
          that I return to the JSP page. In the logfiles all characters seems to be ok.
          Content-Type is set to 'iso-8859-1', if I change to 'UTF-8' they look ok.
          Unfortunately I cannot set UTF-8 as the content-type due to
          restrictions on the rest of the website.
          And since it seems that if I only send a smaller amount of data
          to the browser it looks ok, so there must be some way out of this...
          Has anybody got any clues ??
          regards,
          /Magnus


Solved the problem....
          I did not use the PrintWriter in the 'response' object to write the HTML-table, I
          simply just sent out a big string to the page which got corrupted when reaching
          a certain size.
          Solved it by using the PrintWriter instead.

Issue with Swedish Characters in mail body

Hi,
We are sending mails to some other system from SharePoint. All the swedish characters like ä,Ä,ö become ???.
When we are sending mails from outlook to that system , we are getting proper mail.
so the issue is from sharepoint side.
we are sending mails in UTF8 format nad we have tried all other options as well.
can some one help us in this case.
Thanks,
Heerak

Hi Heerak,
According to your description, the email sent from SharePoint replaced Swedish characters with question marks.
I tried to reproduce this issue, however the Swedish characters in the email body displayed right.
Did this issue occur in all the emails sent from SharePoint?
I recommend to create a simple workflow with the send email action to see if the issue still occurs in order to narrow the issue scope.
Please also re-check if the character set for the corresponding web application is UTF-8.
Go to Central Administration > Application Management > Manage web applications > Highlight the corresponding web application, click General Settings in the ribbon and choose Outgoing E-mail.
Best regards.
Thanks

Characters not displaying properly

I can't find how to properly enter and display certain chars from my db to my jsp page.
For instace, the word "Li'l" is displaying as "Li�??�?��??l".
things like TM,R arent working either.
the "'"(apostrophe) is entering into the DB without a problem- but it wont display. The (TM) is not storing or display properly.
Is there anyway to copy text directly from wordpad into a textbox and have it store in mysql and display in jsp correctly?
Also, this might be a question for the mysql section:
If i'm doing a query like thisSELECT ID, brandName, productInformation, productName, productImage FROM blahblah.uk WHERE brandName = '" + brand + "'"; and " brand + has an apostrophe- the query screws up. Is there a way around it at all?
here is my entire DB connection code.
<%
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
conn = "jdbc:mysql://" + host + "/" + db + "?user=" + user + "&password=" + pass;
Connection Conn = DriverManager.getConnection(conn);
Statement SQLStatement = Conn.createStatement();
String Query = "SELECT ID, brandName, productInformation, productName, productImage FROM blahblah.uk WHERE brandName = '" + brand + "'";
ResultSet SQLResult = SQLStatement.executeQuery(Query);
%>
<%
          while(SQLResult.next())
                 x_ID = SQLResult.getString("ID");
                x_brandName = SQLResult.getString("brandName");
                x_productName = SQLResult.getString("productName");
                x_productInformation = SQLResult.getString("productInformation");
                x_productImage = SQLResult.getString("productImage");
                thanks

May I assume since you're using ASP that you're on Windows? The only way I'm aware to be able to display Arabic characters on Windows would be to set your Windows language to Arabic. This will be somewhere in the Control Panel, but without knowing what version of Windows you're on, it's hard to be more specific.
In general, SQL*Plus is not a wonderful tool for viewing non-English data.

Non-English characters not displaying correctly - Serious Issue

My corporate email is on a Lotus Domino server with Lotus Traveler installed.
I have set my PlayBook (with OS 2) up to syncronize with the corporate email trough Active Sync (see http://alturl.com/qh3nn), which works perfectly.
I have however noticed that in some emails special non-english characters are displayed correctly but in some emails special non-english characters are displayed as a black diamond with a question mark inside.
This is of course a serious issue as most non English speaking countries use some special characters.
When trying to understand this problem how can I analyse the emails and see what character set is being used?
And of course better; has someone solved this?

I am having the same problem. Is there any update available?

Junk characters like" � � "displayed in the jsp page please help.

Hi,
I am getting junk characters like � � displayed in the jsp page.
In the JSP page i used javascript "& nbsp" for appending spaces to a string "CCR" to get "CCR " .
Now the Resultant string "CCR " has three spaces appended to its right.
This String is set in session in that JSP page.
In the next JSP page i am getting that string from session.
After getting the string the "substring" function is performed to get only the first 5 charcters of the string. Now the result is displayed as " CCR� � " with has last 2 characters as junk values � � insteed of displaying as "CCR ". Please help me in solving this issue.
Please note that initially the sting "CCR" is got from the Oracle database in Solaris Machine.
Regards,
Vijay

have you tried:
strenuously inspecting the string that is coming from the db? do an actual loop over the string, character by character, dumping to System.out to make sure the characters are EXACT coming out of the db.
note you have to append " " not just "& nbsp"
post the code that is doing the output. the relevant bean code, the jsp, everything relevant - WITH COMMENTS discussing where things are happening.
Also, is it "weird characters" in the browser only? have you done a view source on the actual html source that the browser is rendering (right click in IE and click view source). browsers can act odd if you don't feed then exactly what they want, and it looks like you're feeding it escaped characters that it is rendering as something else.

Chinese and Korean characters not displaying in navigation pane

I have an issue with Chinese and Korean characters not displaying on the tabs in the navigation pane:
I have 2 RoboHelp projects (using RoboHelp 8 with the updates installed) to generate WebHelp, one in Simplified Chinese, the other Korean. The HTML files, .HHC and .HHK were sent out for translations. I have set the appropriate language in the project settings, everything almost works, except for the text on the Contents, Index, and Search tabs. (I'm not using a skin.) I have read in various threads that the lng file should be edited using the RoboHelp interface, and this seems to be the crux of the problem. The characters do not display correctly through the RoboHelp UI.
The computer on which I generate the WebHelp is Windows Server 2003, and I do not have the language packs installed. (And am having problems getting hold of the language packs to install to see if this fixes the problem.)
Aside from installing the language packs, is there anything else I can try to help resolve the problem? (The characters in the content are displaying as expected.)
Any assistance is greatly appreciated

Perhaps something in the Translation Info section of this page might help? (The specifics are for Japanese, but I believe the issue would apply to all double-byte languages).

Foreign characters not displaying

Hi... I am developing a web app that includes a database of world cities, many of which have foreign characters in their names. The MySQL database is displaying the characters correctly, but when it comes to displaying them in drop down menus, the foreign characters are displayed as blank boxes.
The application is a J2EE Java app.
In the index.jsp file, in the html section, I have specified various types of character sets, including the standard iso-8859-1 and utf-8, but none make a difference.
The home page with the drop-down menus is at www.your-astrology-report.com/index.jsp. From the pull-down menus, select "International", then "Greece", then "NON-ENGLISH FIRST LETTERS" and you'll see what I mean.
The database code that puts the city names into the drop down menu is as follows, although as a fragment, it's incomplete.
try{
     out.print("<select name='city'>");
     out.println("<option value='0'>Select Birth Town - Check Region!</option>");
     if(letter.equals("?")){
          q="select * from "+regid+" where country='"+country+"' AND city NOT RLIKE '^[A-Z]' order by city";
     } else {
          q="select * from "+regid+" where country='"+country+"' AND city LIKE '"+letter+"%' order by city";//city begins with letter
     ResultSet rst=execute_sql_query(q);
     int count=0;
     while(rst.next()){
          out.println("<option value='"+count+"'>"+rst.getString("city")+" - "+rst.getString("subdiv")+" "+SubDiv+"</option>");
          count++;
     out.println("</select>");
I am very new to Java.
Is there some basic way of telling either the query and/or the out.print statement to get, preserve, and display these foreign characters correctly?
Please keep it simple! Like I said, I'm new to all this, and most of the Google queries I've made to try to figure this out have been gobble-de-gook to me! LOL!
Thanks,
Fartian

Thanks everybody for your suggestions. So far, I'm sorry to say, none of your suggestions have helped, though.
I suspect, though, that the reply concerning character streams (PaulClapham) holds the answer. I just don't know how to implement this in my case, i.e. how to apply this to the out.println statements in the previously given code block. My experience with Java is limited. Any ideas?
I should probably tell you how all this is structured in terms of one file calling another:
First we have the index.jsp (www.your-astrology-report.com/index.htm), which has dynamic input fields, the one in question being this:
<td colspan="2"><div id="cities"><select name="city"><option value="">Select City</option></select></div></td>
      <td colspan="2">Select First Letter of City First!</td>div id="cities" refers to a function in a second file, xmlhttp.jsp, which is called by the dynamic input field located just above the "cities" field.
Here is the function:
function handleCityU(regid_letter_country){
     document.getElementById("cities").innerHTML="Loading cities...";
     url="internal_requestU2.jsp?regid_letter_country="+regid_letter_country.value;
     var xmlhttp=myXMLHttpRequest();
     xmlhttp.open("GET",url,true);
     xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() {
          if(xmlhttp.readyState!=4)return;
          document.getElementById("cities").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
     xmlhttp.send(null);
}This function passes the variable "regid_letter_country.value" to yet another file that then parses the variable, requests the required database data, and creates the out.println statements that then populate the dynamic pull-down menu that displays the cities in the original index.jsp file.
THIS IS WHERE I NEED IT TO BE DISPLAYING INTERNATIONAL CHARACTERS. The code for this part is what I originally posted.
Help!
Many thanks...

Non-Latin characters no displaying properly in Safari on iPhone

I am having an issue where non-English (Chinese, Japanese etc) characters are displaying as squares on the iPhone's Safari browser. I've seen this issue on Windows when you haven't installed support for Asian languages.
It would appear that the version of OS-X on the iPhones does not have support for non-Latin character sets.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

I am having an issue where non-English (Chinese,
Japanese etc) characters are displaying as squares on
the iPhone's Safari browser.
Could you provide the urls? It may be the pages have bad coding. Correctly coded pages will display according to tests I've seen:
http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/iphonesafarilang.jpg
But unlike OS X the iPhone has no way yet to manually correct for miscoded pages via a View > Text Encoding menu.

Problems with Turkish characters not displaying correctly

A user is having problems with certain Turkish characters in particular fonts not displaying correctly (as shown below).
The two fonts (Gill Sans and Helvetica LT CondensedLight) are used for English language marketing material. Ideally, for continuity, the same font would be preferred for our Turkish language marketing material rather than changing it to a similar font.
Helvetica LT CondensedLight
Turkish character “ İ ” does not display correctly in either Word or InDesign.
Gill Sans
Turkish characters “ ş ” and “ ğ ” display correctly in Word but not InDesign.
My questions are:
1. For Gill Sans, why are the characters not displaying in InDesign but are in Word?
2. I've noticed here: http://www.webtype.com/font/gill-sans-family/#glyphs-tab that the required characters are available within the Gill Sans font. Is this because the font is newer and includes the additional characters? Would this work in InDesign?

One of the big differences between InDesign and Word is that Word will happily substitute glyphs without telling you. So, unless your installs of Word and of InDesign are using different versions of Gill Sans (which is possible, BTW) then your s-with-cedilla and your g-with-macron are actually not in Gill Sans but in some other font. I'm guessing Arial.
It's possible that you have more than one Gill Sans installed (e.g. one in your Document Fonts folder and another in your system fonts folder) that have different glyph complements. Gill Sans has been around a long time, and the version I have from the 90s has no Turkish support whatsoever.
As far as the capital-I-with-dot, you can check your glyph coverage in a variety of ways. In both InDesign and Word, you can open up a window that shows you all of the glyphs in a font. In InDesign, find it in Type -> Glyphs. In Word, it's called "Insert Symbol" and you can find it in Word 2010 by going to Insert -> Symbol -> More Symbols. I am guessing that the answer to this question is simply that your cut of Helvetica LT has no cap-I-with-dot. You'd need to pick a font that actually has support for Turkish. On WIndows, I use a very full-featured freebie called BabelMap to check font coverage. They have a Web version here:
http://www.babelstone.co.uk/Unicode/babelmap.html
but I personally prefer the downloadable .exe file.

MBP wont display 1080p on monitor any more

I have an early 2011 Macbook pro and a hp 2511x monitor. The setup worked flawlessly before I went off to school. Now that Im back home my macbook wont display 1080p on the monitor, only 720p. While attempting to display 1080p the monitor screen is blank but I am able to move my mouse over to the external dispaly just fine, just no picture. My mac will display 1080p on other external monitors & the monitor will work fine with other computers or xbox on 1080p.
Just upgraded from 10.7 to 10.9 and still not working properly.
Connecting from mini display to hdmi

Special/Swedish characters in an AXL request

Hello,
I am developing an application that is adding a user to the Call Manager (4.1). When I try to add a name with swedish characters (???) the CCM changes them to question marks "?". I have tried adding the swedish characters unicode encoded, ? = &#246, but then I get a AXL syntax error.
Adding the names with swedish characters using the normal CCM interface works fine.
Any idea what I could be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
Tomas

I believe it would be helpful if you share the code that writes the axl requests (I asked which ones you used.. you did not reply so far).
Here's an addUser request that uses an ? and a ? and my code - based on the java code from the sdk to make axl requests- has no trouble sending it.. and the user is created with the proper characters:
http://www.cisco.com/AXL/1.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.cisco.com/AXL/1.0 http://gkar.cisco.com/schema/axlsoap.xsd" sequence="1234">
H?nsliB?nzlihbue1234512345
However, if you do a getuser, and use the same code to send / receive requests, the result will be distorted.. that's because data from the dc directory comes back UTF-8 encoded, whereas data from the database comes back as Latin (that's the default character set on your and my computer).. since the request can be sent without making any changes, that means you don't need UTF-8 encoding.. you should not do anything with the encoding, unless your default character set isn't Latin1 (it's the default throughout Europe.. even if you have an English OS, as long as the regional settings are for a European country, you'll have the proper character set..
Don't forget though: getXYZ comes back latin encoded if the data is from the SQL server, and UTF-8 encoded if it's from the DC directory.. so you have to tell the stream reader that the data is utf-8 encoded when you do a getuser (at least for ccm 4.1.3).

Arabic characters are displaying as question marks in forms 10g

We have migrated our application from forms 6i to forms 10g and now in forms 10g the arabic characters are displaying as question marks while it displays correctly in the old application using forms 6i. I have already set the character set to AR8MSWIN1256 in the registry, but it didn't help. Somebody please help.

@ Sarah, Al-Salamu Alikum We Rahmatu Allah we Barakatu,
Sarah Habibty, why new installation ? In order to select a new suitable character set !!!
Then creating a new instance from the db is a better alternative since it saves time,effort and another back up of his current db is exist safely if needed for any purposes in the future.
@Amer,honestly speaking...
Modifing ur NLS_LANG to > AMERICAN_AMERICA.AR8MSWIN1256
Works for me in both Arabic and English data in 2 applications.This works in my pc.But it didn't works at my boss pc this can happened don't have any reason for that.!!!!
i spent lot's of time trying to search but what i had got is that solution i suggested by a friend of mine.
Now please could you advise me, is it better to create a new instance of database as Amatu Allah has suggested or is it better to change the character set through sql as some others have suggested? Again i suggest to select the short cut way ; to reset the character set through sql after taking a back up from ur data that is currently exist.
then retest again doing the select and test ur data input and retrieval.
SQL> select * from v$nls_parameters
2 where parameter in ('NLS_CHARACTERSET','NLS_LANGUAGE');watching the output if it works that's fine saving ur time & effort .
if not working with the correct NLS_CHARACTERSET then use my previous solution.
Hope this helps...

Amatu Allah

LR 2.1 Unable to Open as Smart Object in PS CS3 due to swedish characters in folder name

When I try to open a raw file from Lightroom 2.1 as a smart object in Photoshop CS3 and the folder contains swedish characters, like åäöÅÄÖ, it will not open at all -> PH starts up and presents a "Open As" dialog.
It works fine when I open images that is in a folder only having english characters...
As I read that some apostrophe-related problems were fixed in the 2.1 release I hoped that it included all special characters allowed in folder names... The same problem occurs in version 2.

My problem might be of a similar origin.
I have also posted it on a different thread http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b6903c
I use mostly Hebrew characters for Keywording (the file names are in English) after opening in CS3 and saving, the keywords are converted from Hebrew fonts to accented fonts like åäöÅÄÖ.
This didn't happen in LR1 and does not happen if I use CS3 as my secondary editor (not using the new LR2 edit in CS3 functionality)

Pdfs wont display in firefox

Hi,
PDFs on my system work fine. They display in IE no problem.
In adobe reader, I've set the pdf to open in a separate window by unchecking the "display in browser check box"
After no luck with the firefox options Ive downloaded the add-on "pdf-download" and set it to display\open pdfs in a new window, but this still doesn't work - I get "the adobe acrobat reader that is running cannot be used to view pdf files in a web browser...try again"
I had some luck getting this to work by giving the user admin rights, but have failed to find a good consistent solution.
any ideas are much appreciated.
thanks
Dan

I found the solution firefox wont display the image if the image location doesn't start with web application image folder root.
So Instead of C:/Images/image.jpg it should be:
Inside TOMCAT/WebApp/WebApplication it should be:
/images/image.jpg instead.
