[Pagekit-users] Character set or parsing issue?

[Russell D. W. <rw...@in...>]

Hello all,

Long time no post :-).

We've encountered the following problem in our PageKit application.  When 
pulling data from a database and using $model->fillinform to populate form 
fields, we're seeing problems when the data contains certain international 
characters, such as "á" -- as well as potentially some others.

Basically, if the word "Testá" is pulled from the database, the HTML form 
field will look like:

<input type="text" value="Test? name="blah">  Obviously, this causes 
problems, as the value is not terminated properly with a quote, and the true 
value is not shown in the form field.  I tested HTML::FillInForm separately 
and this problem does not appear.  The problem may be due to some parsing 
that pagekit does after it runs the the page through HTML::FillInForm.

Boris and others, do you have any idea as to what might cause this?

Thanks,
Russell
