Re: Fwd: euro symbol

Hello Tom,

which response character encoding do you use?
(Check the jahia.properties files for the setting 
defaultResponseBodyEncoding)


I have seen the following piece of code in the BigText_Field class

            if ("ISO-8859-1".equalsIgnoreCase(jParams.settings().
 getDefaultResponseBodyEncoding())) {
                // This code is used to transform submissions that might 
contain
                // Windows 1252 characters (happens mostly when 
copy-pasting
                // from Word documents) to ISO-8859-1 equivalents. Note 
that
                // some of these conversions are actually LONGER than the
                // original. For example the Euro character gets changed 
to
                // "Euro" string. This conversion is not necessary for 
UTF-8
                // because copy-paste does the conversion automatically in 
that
                // case.
                fieldValue = I18n.windows1252ToISO(fieldValue);
            }

And if you check the code of the I18n class you will find the following 
line:
public class I18n {

    static Map w1252ToISO;
    static {
        w1252ToISO = new HashMap();
        w1252ToISO.put(new Character('\u0080'), "Euro");
        w1252ToISO.put(new Character('\u0082'), ",");
        w1252ToISO.put(new Character('\u0083'), "f");
        w1252ToISO.put(new Character('\u0085'), "...");


It means, that if you are using the 'ISO-8859-1' response character 
encoding, which is the default one in Jahia, you will get your '€' 
character (unicode \u0080) replaced with the text 'Euro'.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards.
Sergiy.

Fwd: euro symbol






I'm still having the same issue here. 
 
Anyone tried to alter tidy in a way that characters get escaped 
differently?

Hi all,
 
when you put a euro symbol in the htmleditor ( € ) for bigtext, it gets 
converted to "Euro" (spelled out).
 
When you put &euro; in the source, it displays as a symbol, but next time 
you open the editor, and push the ok button, it gets converted to letters 
again.
 
Does anybody know how I can configure tidy or htmlarea so that € gets 
escaped as "&euro;" instead of "Euro" ?
 
Regards,
 
Tom
