Hi!

I'm from Finland and that's why I very often use scandinavian letters like
å,ä and ö in my forms. And first all seems to be all right but then..
sometimes when I update my forms all the scandinavian letters fall out. In
design view everything is ok but when I publish the page happens like that:
The text should be: Päivä (day), but it is: P??bsp;
This happen in some forms, but not in all forms.

What should I do?

Hi,
I got the same problem with Polish language.
But I found the reason and very simple solution.

CCS by default uses UTF-8 coding, that is not supported by MS Access and MS
SQL databases (at least in case of MS SQL servers and access databases I
have access to). When I realized that fact I added the following META TAG
into the HEAD section in html template file

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">

Now everything is working fine.

Hope this will help
