Hi Gang, I have a bugtracker built using servlets/xml/xsl. Anyway, I have a problem: when people cut and paste out of an MS Word document into the description field, certain characters get translated into weird characters. For example: If I were to type Scott's "test" in Word, then cut & paste that into the text box, it would be saved as "Scottâ??s â??testâ??"
This is bad. The app sends out e-mail alerts when bugs are assigned, and if they happen to contain this char set, the email reads:
"This message uses a character set that is not supported by the Internet Service. To view the original message content, open the attached message. If the text doesn't display correctly, save the attachment to disk, and then open it using a viewer that can display the original character set. "
Any thoughts, ideas?
Thanks!
