Dealing with unencoded characters in submitted text


Form submissions with text sometimes include characters such as © or ™. The server receives them as © and â„¢ so I can't readily decipher them before saving them to a database.

How do I deal with them in the form itself? How are they being handled here, in this form?


Solution

  • Adding accept-charset="ISO-8859-1" made the difference
