[Zope-dev] Fwd: Re: [Zope-CMF] Weird UnicodeDecodeError with zope.formlib

[Charlie Clark]

I'm forwarding this from the CMF list as I'm stumped. I worked my way up  
the debug stack but couldn't find what was causing one Zope instance to  
decode to unicode and the other to leave content as utf-8 (or maybe it's  
the other way round?). Both instances on the same machine.

Any ideas?

Definitely weird. From site 1:

(Pdb) t = self.widgets['town']
(Pdb) t._getFormInput()
u'D\xfcsseldorf'

as expected but from site 2:

(Pdb) t = self.widgets['town']
(Pdb) t._getFormInput()
'D\xc3\xbcsseldorf'

Note the similarity of the field name as one of these forms started out as
a copy of the other. Need to check what is causing this. I think I might
have set a default encoding for Zope to UTF8 ostensibly to reduce IE /
Safari errors. Oh, isn't this fun!
