Hi,

I have a problem with nuBuilder when display Unicode data in Edit form. It cannot display correct unicode text.

How can I correct it?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Hac,

Currently nuBuilder doesn't support unicode data in forms or reports. We have done some research into making nuBuilder support unicode data, and we have discovered there are several changes that will need to be made before we can release a compatible version.

To help us while we look into making nuBuilder unicode-ready, could you please take a screenshot of how the data displays in the edit form and upload it to the forums? Also, are you storing unicode characters directly in the database?

Thanks

Michael

Hi Hac,

Thank you for the screen shot.

I'm still looking into getting unicode data to work correctly in forms with nuBuilder. I'll get back to you shortly to let you know if there's a work-around you could use or approximately when we might be able to make nuBuilder unicode ready.

Hi,

I'm currently setting up a CRM system for the music management business of my wife using nuBuilder. I have a similar issue: When I enter German umlauts (e.g. Ü) in a form, the data is correctly stored in the database. But when it is retrieved again it is shown incorrectly in the form (see attached screenshot).

I would appreciate any workaround or resolution!

Kind regards
Marc

Marc,
Firstly if you view the source html code for this page does it have

Code: Select all

<meta http-equiv='Content-type' content='text/html;charset=UTF-8'>
near the top of the page?

If you could send me a sample table with this data in it I'll see what I can find out.

Steven,

thanks very much for helping!

Yes, in the <head> section there is
<meta http-equiv='Content-type' content='text/html;charset=UTF-8'>
I attached the DB export.

Maybe/hopefully this is just a browser issue and can be resolved easily...

Thank you again!
Marc

mbernath,

I have done a fix to 3 files (all in the attached zip file)

Please use these to overwrite the existing 3 files and let me know if everything works fine.

If it does I'll include them in the next version.

(I appreciate your help in testing)
