In my feature file, I have the following line: When I search with <q=+Brontë> using xml This blows up with: incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT (Encoding::CompatibilityError) Is there a trick to getting non-ascii characters in a .feature file? (I''m pretty sure that my feature file is saved in utf-8). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
