Hi, I have a question regarding spanish content and the use of regsub. We are submitting content to an Oracle db set up to handle UTF-8. The columns store the data properly. The question arises when we submit content from a text area or text field of an html form that contain characters like...

Actually, just found out, that yes indeed it does work. Just so happens that the file I was trying to read had no data in it. Pretty funny, yet pretty stoopid. Should have confirmed the data first. Thanks - Harold

Hi, I have discontinued my efforts and went with a solution that already works, however would still like to resolve this as it adds greater functionality. The popup window code that I have include is the original. If you need more info then I would be glad to send you the templates that I was...
