Re: [Zinc, ZnPercentEncoder] problem encoding accents

Sven

I saw the tests and they works fine.

The problem is on the field.

I have a form with javascript that gets addresses from Google Maps, then the form is submitted to my Pharo-Zinc-App.

When the form is submitted by Safari(OS X), Smalltalks receives the character with accent without encoding (no %).

Continuing with the Neuquen example, the 'accented e’ that should be %C3%A9 is received as the raw character.

With Firefox all works fine, the character is received with the correct encoding.

So the problem is related to ‘decode:’

In the research I also saw that some accented characters could be received as one character encoded, for example the 'accented e’ could be also %E9.

thanks

Leo

Leo,

Are you sure you understand what percent encoding is ?

Check the class comment of ZnPercentEncoding, it has links to a Wikipedia article.

Did you see ZnPercentEncoderTests ?

Anyway, I would think this is what you want to do:

ZnPercentEncoder new encode: 'Neuqu?n, Neuqu?n Province, Argentina'.

=> 'Neuqu%C3%A9n%2C%20Neuqu%C3%A9n%20Province%2C%20Argentina'

ZnPercentEncoder new decode: 'Neuqu%C3%A9n%2C%20Neuqu%C3%A9n%20Province%2C%20Argentina'.

=> 'Neuqu?n, Neuqu?n Province, Argentina'

Seems to work fine, no ?

What problem do you have with ZnUrl ?

Leo,

I am sorry but you will have to be more specific and concrete. You are mixing lots of different things (encoding/decoding, form submit, JS - and there are details missing) - there are many places where you could have done something wrong.

Please try to isolate your problem with a concrete short piece of code that I can run. Something along the lines of ZnDefaultServerDelegate>>formTest[1|2|3]: maybe.
