I’m noticing that when posting a form through IE7, accented characters are getting messed up as soon as the request hits the server. But in FF3 it works just fine. The page encoding is set to ISO-8859-1. Is there any particular place I should start investigating?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: The behavior I’m noticing is specifically a ü character when copied and pasted from word. If I paste it into IE7 from notepad it works fine.
It turns out that the AJAX request had not explicitly specified a charset request header. FF 3 seemed to have set it by default but IE7 would not. Once I had defined that on the AJAX request header it started working.
Thanks all for your help.
