Hi, under webrick the character, £, displays fine. Under apache it has
some problems.
The £ displays fine on my administrator page, using the default
generated code:
<% for column in Product.content_columns %>
<p>
<b><%= column.human_name %>:</b> <%=h
@product.send(column.name) %>
</p>
<% end %>
but when i construct my own view, and use:
<p><%= @product.price_prefix %><%=
sprintf("%0.2f",@product.price)
%></p>
the £ displays as ablack diamond and white question mark.
Whats that all about?

Thanks andrew, unfortunatly this is user entered content, i feel its not reasonable to ask them to enter £. But i dont understand how it can be displayed correctly, and incorrectly on the same site, rails is doing something different when it renders these views. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Try put an ''H'' when you output ruby code, eg:
<p>
<%=h @product.price_prefix %>
<%=h sprintf("%0.2f",@product.price)%>
</p>
<%=h CONTENT %>
will escape things for you.
