WG: [Gramps-users] Bug or feature: UTF8 in HTML files

[Beyer, F. <FB...@nr...>]

There is another solution for this feature:

1. Place a .htaccess file in the folder on the apache server.

But the best way is:

2. Rename the files from *.html to *.html.utf8
So all browser identify the files as utf-8 and the display is correct.

It would be nice to have this option in the export dialog, according to
htnl, php, ...

Hello Alex,

You are absolutely right. My web browser sees locally the UTF8 =
correctly but
I=20
am serving my pages from apache and the problem is there. I have tried =
to
use=20
the  "AddDefaultCharset utf-8" directive to my apache web server but it =
does

not work. I will have a more thorough look at it.

Thanks

Pablo.
