I’m trying to implement a SOAP webservice in Python 2.6 using the suds library. That is working well, but I’ve run into a problem when trying to parse the output with lxml. Suds returns a suds.sax.text.Text object with the reply from the SOAP service. The suds.sax.text.Text class is a subclass of the Python built-in Unicode class. In es...
Why is it that when I use Firefox to enter: 漢, the GET will transform to: q=%E6%BC%A2&start=0 However, when I use IE8 and I type the same chinese character, the GET is: q=?&start=0 It turns it into a question mark. ...

Hey, I'm using php 5 and need to communicate with another server that runs completely in unicode. I need to convert every string to unicode before sending it over. This seems like an easy task, but I haven't been able to find a way to do it yet. Is there a simple function that returns a unicode string? i.e. convert_to_unicode("the string...

Hi all, I believe I know the answer to this question, but wanted to confirm: Question Does Sql server (or will it in the foreseeable future), offer a database-wide "unicode switch" which says "store all characters in unicode (UTF-16, UCS-2, etc)", i.e. like Oracle. The Context Our application has provided "CJK" (Chinese-Japanese-Kor...
Hi all, I'm back-porting a Windows Mobile project from Visual Studio 2005 to eMbedded Visual C++, 'cause VS2005 does not compile for the SH3 CPU family, only SH4. I ran into the fact that eVC 3 does not support Unicode sources, and I have quite a few of those, not easily convertible to a single-byte encoding. Question - between eVC 4, ...

I have the following code, from which you can see that, I use the same way to create the text in utf-8. The text shown between html tags are shown correctly. But the text shown as html tag attribute are shown in unicode. I'm positive that on the server side(PHP), both texts are treated in the same way and are encoded in utf-8. Why the t...
