I’m developing a web app in asp.net mvc using jquery, the language of application

  • 0

I’m developing a web app in asp.net mvc using jquery, the language of application is pt-BR and some characteres are not displayed correctly, like accented charcacters and ‘ç’ char. Insted of this, a unknown char is displayed on browser.

Is there any way to set the location on jquery ? Or on the file .js, .aspx?

I am not doing an ajax call, I’m writing a text in elements of html like div, hyperlink, etc… something like this:

$("#myDiv").text("Água, Açúcar, e leite em pó");

But in my div is shown: “?gua, A??car, e leite em p?”

I’ve set my globalization in web.config to pt-br, my html tag and meta tags to pt-br:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="pt">  
<head>   
   <title>...</title>   
   <meta charset="utf-8">
   <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1">  
   <meta http-equiv="content-language" content="pt-br">

Is there anything is missing ?

Thanks

    Educated guess: You are writing the text in ISO-8859-1.

    Try forcing the browser to display the page in ISO-8859-1. If the text shows up fine then, this is the reason.

    Change the encoding of the file you are fetching the text from. You should have a setting for that in your IDE / text editor.
