AJAX and special characters
hi everyone.
Am trying to get some data (in french) from a database, but the special characters like "é" are getting replaced by question marks. I have been able to find a way in mozilla using
xmlHttp.overrideMimeType('text/xml; charset=iso-8859-1');
but it is not working in IE7 and IE6.
here are the codes :
Code:
function showArticles(rubrique)
{
xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject();
if (xmlHttp==null)
{
alert ("Your browser does not support AJAX!");
return;
}
var url="displayTable.php";
url=url+"?r_id="+rubrique;
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=stateChanged;
xmlHttp.open("GET",url,true);
xmlHttp.send(null);
}
function stateChanged()
{
if (xmlHttp.readyState==4)
{
document.getElementById("dynamicTable").innerHTML=xmlHttp.responseText;
}
}
function GetXmlHttpObject()
{
var xmlHttp=null;
try
{
// Firefox, Opera 8.0+, Safari
xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHttp.overrideMimeType('text/xml; charset=iso-8859-1'); //NO CHARACTER PROBLEM IN MOZILLA
}
catch (e)
{
// Internet Explorer
try
{
xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
//xmlHttp.overrideMimeType('text/xml; charset=iso-8859-1'); // THIS DOES NOT WORK, I"VE COMMENTED IT
}
catch (e)
{
xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
}
return xmlHttp;
}
