Soap call with non-english characters #105

Hi,

Calling the soap service is returning a gibberish characters instead of the right ones: The server side is: unnamed

What I am getting in the client side as a response is: untitled1

I tried to change the "Content-Type" in the soap call header request by adding the following: HTTPHeaders: { 'Content-Type': "application/json;charset=ISO-8859-6" }

But this didn't affect the "Request Header": untitled2

I will appreciate for your advice. Thanks, Amar

I did my best to implement a new charset parameter for the $.soap-call but I was unsuccessful... After some googling I found out it is impossible....

Note: The W3C XMLHttpRequest specification dictates that the charset is always UTF-8; specifying another charset will not force the browser to change the encoding.

from the $.ajax api specs

I am sorry...
