Hey,
So, if one expects a lot of international characters in a contact form for
an international client, how does one ensure that the characters are passed
with some integrity, rather than as garbag-y looking stuff?
I've tried a great number of things, but the problem seems to be that the
info is passed from the form as the "wrong" ASCII number. Does this require
a JavaScript to convert the high-ASCII characters to their actual high-ASCII
values, before they are passed to the server?
I'm using Cold Fusion, though I'm not convinced that it matters what I'm
using.
I have the same issue with a form in Flash which calls a CFMAIL tag, but I
haven't tried as many solutions with that just yet.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
