I’m working on a Spanish language website where some text is stored in a MS SQL 2008 database table.
The text is stored in the db table with characters such as á, í and ñ.
When I retrieve the data, the characters don’t display on the page.
This is probably a very simple fix but please educate me.
You must use Unicode instead of ANSI strings and functions, and must choose a web page encoding that has the required character set. Some searches on those terms will yield all you need. Look up content type 1252 and 8859 as well in case you get stuck (examples, not answers).
