Problems with euro symbol in forms with enctype=multipart/form-data

[AnakinPt]

Hi,

I have a problem, sometimes, and only in some forms, when i have

<form method=post action=index.php enctype=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot;>
<input type=text name=titulo>
<textarea name=texto></textarea>
<input type=file name=img_nova>
...
</form>

when i submit the Euro Symbol in the textarea, when i submit the form, the field &quot;titulo&quot; appears as empty.

This is a very strange thing that only appears in some forms. Not in all of them. I don't know if te problem is in the HTML or in the Apache.

Had anyone ha this problem before?

Hugo,

I have seen the problem and it related to the ASCII encoding table used by my browser. You can try changing the default encoding in your browser to see if that works and if you want to find a way to set the encoding for the specific page try using the HTML validator on the

http://www.w3c.org

web site it will explain a bit more how to set things up right.

Hope this helps.
