Trouble with euro symbol ( x80 )

Hi!
on windows-plattforms the euro-symbol often is encoded with x80. I can manage to read from those files/streams, but as soon as I try to write this value to into a stream with whatever encoding java "thinks" that x80 is not a printable character and writes a x3f (a questionmark) instead.
I know that the euro-symbol should be unicode x20AC, but if windows and the IE uses x80 my java-program has to be able to deal with that!
please help

Maybe it has to be done the other way around.
You need an encoding that reads windows' Euro x80 into Unicode x20AC and you should not stick to have the Euro sign as x80 at the Java side.

Oracle 9i - problem with euro symbol

HI,
I have a database on oracle 9i and i can't store the euro symbol ( it is stored like a '?' reverse).On the server I have NLS_CHARACTERSET=WE8MSWIN1252 and for
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=AL16UTF16.
Which superset is needed for this parameter to display the euro symbol and if I can do the change if the my NLS_CHARACTERSET is not a superset for NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET ?
Thanks.

CS4 bug - trouble with looping symbols

I really really need help with this. I am in the middle of a job and although this has happened many times before this is happening with more regularity recently.
When I simply select a symbol in CS4 and change the looping from 'loop' to 'single frame' or 'play once' it will sometimes change the symbols colour and give it a transparency (as if you have changed the alpha and tint of that symbol). I cannot get around this and if it happens and I haven't noticed it ruins that bit of animation and I have to delete it all.
if I go into the symbol the colours are restored but as soon as I leave it again it reverts to some kind of neon translucent version.
I am so desperate for help, it happens on other computers and with other files.
This is always a totally unreliable programme it has given me such stress!

Bumping this isn't going to gain it any attention... it will actually reduce your chances because postings with replies tend to be skipped over in favor of those with 0 replies. In any case, you are not likely to find anyone from Adobe waiting to hear from you here since these are user-to-user forums and are not monitored by Adobe. You might get lucky and have the one employee that sometimes visits catch your posting, but don't cross your fingers.
If you think there is a bug in the program, then what you should do is report it using the link below.

Though it sounds more like something that might be an installation or system-related problem specific to you since it hasn't come up here before as far as I can remember. And since you seem to only have posts regarding issues with using the program, it looks more like the problem is probably something in the installation and not the program's design.

How print EURO symbol in SAPscript i.e. 'u0080'

hello,
i am in trouble with the symbol of currency euro, which has to be displayed in script,
i have tried to find it in SAPscripts symbols, but i didn't find it.
can anybody help on this.
Regards,
Adarsh.

This is how you can do, if this symbol is not found. Call sub-routine and concatenate "" and amount separated with space and display in your script.
Usually if symbol is not available we print EUR amount...

Hello Maya -
Check for the alternative.

Search for the EURO symbol, select , copy and paste wherever it is required.
I tried this in BW 3.5 and it worked.

Euro symbol not rendering

Hi,
My original page was published with euro symbols within some editable regions, and these rendered properly and without issue.
Today my client is trying to edit and the euro symbols are not rendering, instead turning into question marks and I can't understand why. It's really quite annoying, and not to mention slightly embarassing.
The page's character encoding is as follows:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
I've also tried:-
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
Grateful for any help to resolve this issue.
Many thanks

I would say this is part of the US version being supported atm...
As a rule of thumb, I always use UTF-8. Using Unicode is much more reliable than legacy character encoding such as Windows 1252 or ISO 8859-1 (NOTE: the older ISO 8859-1 had no character for the Euro sign)....
My first question would be.. What browser are they using? and how are they entering the character (copy-n-paste, keyboard, or compose key sequence)?
You could ask your client to try using "&#8364" or "&euro" in the html... if he were editing html. Since he can't, you need to make sure they are entering it directly from the keyboard; the other issue may be if they are trying to copy / paste the character. If for example they are copying a document from email or MS Word, then pasting it into the InContext browser, the encoding will almost always get messed up.
Either way, I would ask them to use one of these methods:
The US keyboard shortcut for the Euro sign is alt-0128.
The Compose key sequence for the euro sign is =E. On many European keyboard layouts, the symbol can be entered as AltGr+E, on others as AltGr+4 or AltGr+5, according to official recommendations.
On the Mac OS operating system, a variety of key combinations are used depending on the keyboard layout (for example, option-2 in British layout, option-shift-2 in United States layout).
Using the US keyboard shortcut for the Euro sign is alt-0128, as you can see, works fine here € (this editor translates that as "&euro").
This page is encoded as follows:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-US" />
You can see a difference on content management systems where their database uses a different Character-set. You can read more on the character encoding as the W3C recommends: http://www.w3.org/International/O-charset

Euro Symbol with Windows 7 Bootcamp

I'm using a Macbook with Windows 7 via Bootcamp and I'm having a hard time finding the Euro Symbol. I've tried every combo of numbers+alt+shift. Is there a shortcut for this symbol in bootcamp? I do not want to keep copying and pasting it from the internet into my doccuments.

In my case, using Mac Aluminum keyboard, looking at this:

Pressing Right Alt key and key 0 1 2 8 in numeric keypad
causes € to appear when you stop pressing on Alt Key.

Problems with jdbc thin driver (Euro Symbol)

Hello,
at the moment it is impossible for me to write or read euro characters to a database using a jdbc thin driver.
I am using
ojdbc14.jar (version 10.2.0.3.0) and orai18n.jar (also) together with JDK 1.4.2.
Charset of the database is WE8MSWIN1252. It does not work on ORACLE 9.2.0.1, 9.2.0.6 and 10.2.0.2.0 (others I have not tried). But the problem seams to be in thin client.
Inserting Eurosymbols using a PreparedStatement works quite well. Using a normal Statement does not work.
Also the values getting from a ResultSet are incorrect.
After several test I downloaded a patch 4659157 for ojdbc14.jar and 5470375 for orai18n.jar. After installing the patch the euro characters were returned, but:
In several selects of numeric fields (not all, seams to be random) my resultset returned the Euro character instead of 0 and so on.
Driver for 9.2 works quite well, but does not support 10g Release 2 (and contains also some funny bugs)
Following solutions are not suitable for us:
Changing the character set of the database (come on, this cannot be serious. I cannot change the character set of more than 100 databases)
Using the newest driver (ORACLE 11). We are still using JAVA 1.4.2 and cannot migrate our application at the moment.
Using an oci client. Not possible, no ORACLE client on clients...
Has anyone an idea how to deal with this?
Does anyone know when ORACLE is going to release a new jdbc driver for JAVA 1.4.2 (maybe 10.2.0.4.) ??
Regards,
Christian

Just installed PATCH 4659157 and 5470375 from metalink. The Euro problem seams to be corrected.
BUT:
Another problem occurred. Sometimes numeric values are returned wrong (0 from a numeric field comes as euro, 1 comes as Á (2 and 3 too).
This error seams to be random to me.
Our application is selecting a rowid from a table and after that fills several textfields in a frame by selecting the content in a way like this:
select [column1] from [table] where rowid=[rowid]
select [column2] from [table] where rowid=[rowid]
if I select the numeric column with select nr. 77 I get a wrong value. If I select it at nr. 10 I get the correct value.
The selects are done by a normal Statement object creating a ResultSet. The Value from the ResultSet is fetched by getObject() method.
I also tried to write a test program executing only the selects of the application, but it gives me correct results.
Also when selecting all the fields in one select I get a correct result.
Using a different charset than WE8MSWIN1252 seams to give correct results. Using the OCI driver returns correct results.
Using ojdbc14.jar and orai18n.jar Release 10.2.0.3. unpatched produces the same error (and does not return Euro symbols)
Using ojdbc14.jar and orai18n.jar Release 10.2.0.2. returns correct results (but wrong Euro)
Has anyone had the same problem yet?
Regards,
Christian

I have an Ipod Touch (4th Gen) and I am having troubles with my downloads from purchasing music from the Ipod. On my downloads icon in the Itunes Store (on Ipod) there is a symbol of how many songs I still have waiting to download, but they wont download.

I have been having troubles with this for months and am extremly tired of not being able to download my songs. I bought these songs off of Itunes as well, so I really hope i can retrieve them. I do not know where to find a personal apple support person yet, does anyone know where to find one on the website?

Problem Inserting Euro Symbol and few others

We are using java application with oracle 8.1.6 as the db with the charset as WE8ISO8859P15. ALl the forms are using multipart request. We cannot do away without that. When trying to insert euro symbol and few other western european characters, they get converted to something else before getting stored in the db and so we are not able to display them properly on retrieval.
Can anyone please help in this direction?

Just set the nls_charset.zip in classpath and then try to insert into db.I think it might not be a problem with database.(note. if u insert euro character it will be reside in db, as some format but u retrive it and stream it thru servlet it will be displayed in the browser properly, if u write using printwriter then it might give "?" / "O" in browser. refer http://www.inter-locale.com/faq/blacksquares.jsp).

Struts and euro symbol

Hi there,
I am facing the following problem.
I am working in a project with Struts.
If I write in any of the text input within a jsp the euro symbol, I get one of the others input text (hidden) as null in the Action (it is the first text input).
If I include
<%@page language="java" pageEncoding="utf8" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF8"%>
at the top of the jsp file and
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
in the html head every thing is ok but I get a strange symbol "��" instead "�".
Anyhelp would be appreciate.
Regards,
Sergio

Thank you, but it does not work.
I have tried with ISO-8859-15 instead of UTF-8. Now, I am getting an ?.

Euro symbol in JSP

Hi all,I have a strange behaviour in a report displaying Euro symbol: a '?' take the place of Euro symbol. Instead, exporting the report in PDF or RTF format, the symbol is displayed correctly in the documents generated. The JSP displaying the report doesn't use the tag library, but instantiates CrystalReportViewer class and performs the following operations:<% //(Gets the report source) ...... CrystalReportViewer viewer = new CrystalReportViewer(); viewer.setReportSource(reportSource); viewer.setEnableLogonPrompt(false); viewer.setDisplayGroupTree(false); viewer.setHasToggleGroupTreeButton(false); viewer.setHasLogo(false); viewer.setEnableDrillDown(false); viewer.setOwnPage(true); viewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, getServletConfig().getServletContext(), out); %> If the report is displayed by means of a JSP using the tag library, Euro symbol is displayed correctly either in the JSP or in the documents generated exporting the report; here the source: <%@ taglib uri="/crystal-tags-reportviewer.tld" prefix="crviewer" %> <crviewer:viewer reportSourceType="reportingComponent" displayToolbarCrystalLogo="false" displayToolbarToggleTreeButton="false" displayGroupTree="false" viewerName="firstReport-viewer" reportSourceVar="firstReport" isOwnPage="true"> <crviewer:report reportName="reports/firstReport.rpt" /> </crviewer:viewer> What's wrong in the first JSP? Have I set other parameters? Thanks in advance, pippo 

Hi all,I've found the solution, setting the page content type: <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=utf-8" %>With this piece of code the JSP displayes the Euro simbol correctly.

Trouble with first progråµ

I'm having trouble with my simple calculator, which is similar to the calculator in "cocoa programming for dummies".
http://public.me.com/schoolkid144
its firstproject.zip
The trouble is that when I get the value of the two text fields, it always returns 0 even when the value of both text fields is 1.

Hi S-T Programmer, and welcome to the Dev Forums!
The connections between the FuseBox outlets and the three text fields just need to be reversed in Interface Builder. An IBOutlet instance variable is associated with an Interface Builder object by Ctrl-Dragging from the object which owns the variable to the object the variable wants to reference. For example, to connect the FuseBox ivar named answerField to the text field which is to display the answer, Ctrl-Click on the FuseBox icon in the xib window then drag to the desired text field object. The text field object may either be found as an icon in the xib (Document) window, or as the full-scale drawing of the object in the IB Editor window (where you lay out the view). When you release the mouse at the end of the drag, a black list of all the FuseBox class outlets will pop up. Select the outlet you meant to connect (in this case answerField), and the connection will be made.
The problem with giving IB instructions in the forum is that a picture is worth a thousand words, and this post is on the wrong side of that equation. So I'm hoping you'll be able to see enough of the picture from all these words. There are two other ways of making IB connections that are harder to use, but easier to explain:
1) If you Ctrl-Click (without dragging) on any icon in the xib window, a floating, black panel will pop up showing every possible connection to that object. To make the same connection discussed above from the answerField outlet to the right-hand text field, Ctrl-Click on the FuseBox icon and find answerField in Outlet list. You can now drag directly from the connector symbol to the desired text field. This time there's no popup when you release the mouse because IB already knows which outlet is to be connected. After the connection is made, you can Ctrl-Click on the text field icon and see its connection panel. You'll know the connection is going in the right direction when the connection to the text field is listed under +Referencing Outlets+ and the connection back at the FuseBox object is listed under Outlets.
The floating, black connection panels are especially useful for deleting connections. Since your project currently has three backwards connections, you can use these panels to delete those by clicking on the 'X' which is visible on each connection line.
2) There's also a tab in the Inspector window for making connections. Select one of the objects you want to connect and select Tools>Connections Inspector from the top menu if you have trouble finding the tab. You can make connections in this window if you want, but you can also use the Connections Inspector to view the connections previously made by dragging.
This topic is covered in more detail (including some screen shots! yay!!) under Creating and Managing Outlet and Action Connections in the +Interface Builder User Guide+.
I think your connection between the Calculate button and the FuseBox was correct. This post has gotten so long I can't remember if I had to reverse that one too, but I don't think I did. Anyway you'll be able to check for yourself now that you know what to look for, right? The connection between an object's Sent Action and an IBAction method goes in the direction opposite to an IBOutlet connection. Thus to connect the Calculate button you need to drag from the button to the FuseBox.
_Outlet from_ the FuseBox
_Action to_ the FuseBox
Hope that helps!
