Can anyone point me towards a sorting algorithm in javascript that would sort the same way SQL Server does (for nvarchar/unicode columns)? For reference, my previous question about this behavior can be found here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3213717/sql-server-2008-different-sort-orders-on-varchar-vs-nvarchar-values Rather than ...
In Rails 3 (currently using Beta 4) I see that when using the form_tag or form_for helpers there is a hidden field named _snowman with the value of ☃ (unicode \x9731) showing up. So, what is this for? ...

I'm reading and parsing an Amazon XML file and while the XML file shows a ' , when I try to print it I get the following error: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u2019' in position 16: ordinal not in range(128) From what I've read online thus far, the error is coming from the fact that the XML file is in UTF-8, but Python wants...
Hey all, I have a strong that I scraped from an XML file and It contains some HTML formatting tags (<b>, <i>, etc) Is there a quick and easy way to remove all of these tags from the text? I tried str = str.replace("<b>","") and applied it several times to other tags, but that doesn't work ...

Hello I just coded the first version of an efficient glyph-to-texture function which takes ranges of unicode characters to store into one or more pov2 textures and am searching for information regarding which code charts are used in which language. I know that the Unicode Consortium gives this per glyph, but that would take really long ...
I have a php script which lists workgroups/domains, computers in workgroups/domains and shares on computers. The apache is running under specific credentials (so not Local System), so it has access on LAN. Listing subfolders of the shares is working partially: only with latin characters. For example if I have a computer named ABC and a...
I am using Python 2.6.5. My code requires the use of the "more than or equal to" sign.

1) Escape sequences are mostly used for characters constants that either have a special meaning (such as “ or \ ) or for characters that can't be represented graphically. Any character literal could be represented using hex ('\xhhhh') or unicode ('\0hhhh') escape sequences. Is there a situation where we should prefer using hex escape seq...
For instance class files use CESU-8 (sometimes also called MUTF-8), but internally Java first used UCS-2 and now it uses UTF-16. The specification about valid Java source files says that a minimal conforming Java compiler only has to accept ASCII characters. What's the reason for these choices? Wouldn't it make more sense to use the sam...
The following Groovy commands illustrate my problem. First of all, this works (as seen on lotrepls.appspot.com) as expected (note that \u0061 is 'a'). >>> print "a".matches(/\u0061/) true Now let's say that we want to match \n, using the Unicode escape \u000A. The following, using "pattern" as a string, behaves as expected: >>> pri...
I am using a regular expression to see if there is a single non-latin character within a string. $latin_check = '/[\x{0030}-\x{007f}]/u'; //This is looking for only latin characters if(preg_match($latin_check, $_POST['full_name'])) { $error = true; } This should be checking to see if there is at least one character pres...
Inserting multilingual data into a SQL 2008 database (nvarchar field) I notice that it seems to lose some special character marks. e.g. INSERT INTO [dbName].[dbo].[tbl_Question_i18n] ([QuestionId] ,[LanguageId] ,[QuestionText]) VALUES (@lastinsertedquestionid ...
I'm working on a general-purpose programming language. In addition to the modern requirement of Unicode support in strings and identifiers, I'm considering supplying alternate spellings of some operators, specifically: Relational ( for <= >= !=) Bitwise and Setwise ( for & |) Logical ( for && || !) Arrows ( for -> =>) I know th...
