charset in <head> isn't interpreted #4

Closed inillaug closed 4 years ago

inillaug commented 4 years ago

Hello,

I put in but the character "è" appear as "è". If open the html without loading webserver the character "è" is correct.

Hi,

It appears that you are on windows, and you was using a non-utf8 editor, like notepad ... no ?

Sorry for that, but currently, html's content can only be utf8 (and no windows-1252 or consorts) ...

Try the same thing, with a ut8's ready editor (set the file's encoding to utf8) .. and tell me

inillaug commented 4 years ago

Hello manatlan, the html file is already in UTF-8. I've opened it with "Notepad++" in Windows7. The head content is already meta-tagged as UTF-8.

meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" meta charset="UTF-8"

manatlan commented 4 years ago

could you post me your html file ? to have a look

manatlan commented 4 years ago

I've understand ;-) You've setted your meta tag as if it was utf8 ... But, on windows, default encoding is "mbcs" (cp-1252 in europe) : so your content is windows-1252 ! try to set your meta as "Windows-1252" .. and it should work (or configure your notepad++ to encode your text content as utf8). In fact : your meta tag should be the same as the content encoding (if it differs, like you, you encounter this kind of troubble)

I close ... feel free to reopen if not

inillaug commented 4 years ago

Hello, No way. If I open the html file directly in Firefox, the viewing is correct. If I open the html file trough guy -> Firefox, the wiewing is wrong.

manatlan commented 4 years ago

Hi, glad to hear you again ...

Can you provide a version of your HTML file, so I could see the trouble, and could fix it ?

inillaug commented 4 years ago

Hi, how can I send you the file?

manatlan commented 4 years ago

you can attach a file ... here in a comment !

inillaug commented 4 years ago

below the code....

`<!DOCTYPE html>

Ciao Ciao!

Ciao Mondo!

Questa è la nostra prima pagina HTML!

`

manatlan commented 4 years ago

can your repost a comment, with the file embedded in the msg (by just dragging it from your file folder to the comment in your browser) ?

(because, with copying/pasting like this, there are a (lot of) treatment on the content, which will corrupt/correct the content)

inillaug commented 4 years ago

Here the file...

Simple.zip

manatlan commented 4 years ago

thanks ... Capture du 2020-03-16 20-38-33

Your file is well encoded (content is really utf8, and declared as utf8) It works like expected ...

here is my test

#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import guy

class Simple(guy.Guy):
    pass

if __name__ == "__main__":
    Simple().run()

what's the trouble ? (which python version ? which os ?) test.zip

inillaug commented 4 years ago

myresult

Above my result with your python test code. The OS is WIN7 64bit Python is 3.6.8 64bit

Strange ... and your chrome version ? (mine : Version 80.0.3987.87)

inillaug commented 4 years ago

Google Chrome Version 80.0.3987.132

manatlan commented 4 years ago

In the real world, your browser should see that the page is UT8 (according the meta declaration), and display it as ... UTF8. But in your case: it's clearly display it, as "Windows-1252" ... so it shows "è" instead of "è".

I don't think it could be a windows trouble (not a py trouble too).

The only thing: perhaps have you forced your Chrome to display all pages as "Windows-1252" ... BTW, i don't find how to set this in current chrome settings (it seems that the easy option has been removed) ... or perhaps you have a chrome extension which override defaults ?!?

I will think/search about it .. and come back later with an idea ;-)

inillaug commented 4 years ago

If I run the code in "server mode" and I open the webpage in firefox or IE the trouble is the same. If I open the file "Simple.html" directly in firefox, IE, chrome the webpage is rendered correctly without trouble. Anyway I'll test your suggestion.

manatlan commented 4 years ago

and if you visit : https://a-starlette.glitch.me/spe what do you see ?

you should see: Capture du 2020-03-17 18-19-08

inillaug commented 4 years ago

I saw exactly wath you saw.

manatlan commented 4 years ago

So, it can't be a trouble in your browser.

Run my test ^^, in server mode, and try to point your browser to your real IP --> http://:8000 (replace "localhost" by your real IP)

inillaug commented 4 years ago

I already did this test. If I run the code in "server mode" and I open the webpage in firefox, IE, chrome the trouble is the same.

inillaug commented 4 years ago

I did all test executed before in win7 on a win10 machine with the same trouble.

manatlan commented 4 years ago

on monday, I will have access to a win10/py3.7+latest chrome ... I will have a test ... but if this was really a bug I'd already seen it

inillaug commented 4 years ago

I tested with win10/py3.7 and the trouble is the same. "Simple.html" loaded with apache shows correctly.

inillaug commented 4 years ago

The same code of Simple.html put in doc string works correctly. See the attached py file.

testmanatlanstring.zip

inillaug commented 4 years ago

The trouble is in parsing the file to string. See this code....

manatlan commented 4 years ago
