Over a year ago I posted a question about why my £sign was printing in one of my page and not in another although the code was the same. I went through checking database type, collation etc and changing from Unicode to LatinX etc. in the layout all to no avail. I temporarily solved the problem by using £ or £ in brackets. I found the answer a few days ago. It was the word processor used. I probably used Ultraedit for one or notepad or Textmate or even Word for the other. The coding in the wordprocessor was to blame. I found out when I copied the RoR code from one page that was not working to the one that was and after changing the controller code as well; "voila" it worked. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
