ERROR: 6 - all non-ASCII characters in titles must be HTML-escaped, please use the UTF8 to HTML converter

If that is the case, anidb should send a charset header of US-ASCII, not ISO8859-1. The current header makes my browser send umlaute (which are part of ISO8859-1 but not US-ASCII) unescaped.

Code: Select all

Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII

I am not sure if that would really help.
What would your browser send if the encoding would be US-ASCII?
Have you tried that out before?

BYe!

It sends "äöasdå" for "äöasdå"

Here's a testing thingy. I wrote that for something else, I just changed the encoding to US-ASCII. Your browser should escape everything with a high bit.

I couldn't test this in action in anidb because for some reason Fx doesn't include a choice for US-ASCII in View->Character Encoding.
