TCP/IP

[andy]

Hello!

i have done this example for tcp ip chat application

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
url=/library/en-us/dnadvnet/html/vbnet08282001.asp

the server starts and the chat is working but i have one
problem. I come from sweden and there we use ÅÄÖ . When
typing ÅÄÖ in the chat there will be strange charachters
like ÄÅÖ. Is there a way to solve this problem!

Best Regards Andy

It looks like its escaped text (maybe by transfering via XML or some other
escaped format, I don't know.) So see if you can do somethng like
HTMLEncode (I'm just usuing that as an example) and then decode it with HTML
Decode.

I don't know exactly what some of those characters mean (nor if my display
is propertly displaying them as you see them) but the &#132 tells me that
its escaped character 132. Perhaps the A (with the ~) is a locale
identifier or something.

HTH,
CJ
