RE: FusionCharts v3 Evaluation and UTF-8 Problem

yeah, please do share with us.

I have the same issues. Looking at the response xml returned in firefox, i can see the Japaneses and the Chinese characters just fine. (our .net application supports displaying characters of all kinds)

However, the x label names are messed up. Not sure what to do with it.
I constructed an xml file manually, in visual studio, saved the file as UTF-8 (however, the only option VS 2005 gave me was "Unicode (UTF-8 with signature) - Codepage 65001, Line endings: Unicode Line Separator (LS)".

Tried with Notepad++ , opened up the xml, I can see the non-English characters just fine as well.

Still no joy. :( but other than that, i'm enjoying it so much. :)

EDIT - resolved. The way I manually constructed the xml and back to the javascript setDataURL was wrong. It didn't have BOM in front.

I have tried adding 0xEF, 0xBB, 0xBF at the beginning of the xml string that is generated; which really made the output look like:

I'm still having the same problem though.

hi,

can you try adding the 3 BOM bytes (0xef,0xbb,0xbf) at the beginning of the XML stream.

Also, here is what the xml output shows (notice that all non-English characters are correctly replaced with their UTF-8 equivalents):
