Posting thai characters in a form
Hi,
I have written a form to submit thai character so that I can later enter it into a MSSQL DB. I am in a dotnet environment but this is asp scripting.
The thing is that the request.form does not always give me the characters posted. When i enter แฟพ and i write the response I get แฟพ which is the same so no worries. Now i enter ซีดี and I get ๏ฟฝีด๏ฟฝ. Isn't that wierd?
I am going tingtong here (thai for crazy).
I have set the characterset using:
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Response.Charset = "windows-874"
End Sub
And here is the code of the page:
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="translatetest.aspx.vb" Inherits="translatetest" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
<title>Untitled Page</title>
</head>
<%
Response.Write((Request("thai")))
%>
<body>
<form name=form1 action="translatetest.aspx" method="post">
<div>
<input type=text name="thai" />
<input type=submit name=go value=go />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
