    International characters in filename

    How do I get the Ajax Uploader to upload international characters such as å, ä and ö in a correct manner? Now they get replaced with "crap" characters.

    Yes, that seems to work. But my form also displays the åäö characters. It's when I try to deal with the data inside the Uploader_FileUploaded sub that characters changes.
     
    I viewed the source of the full demo but I couldn't see any encoding.

    Hi,
     
    Make sure you are using the newest version.
     
    One of the old version has problem on special chars.
     
    You can find the exact version from file description .

    I'm using version 3.0 2009091.
     
    I don't need to set any encoding or encode the characters?
     
    In my web.config I have ISO-8859-1 which I need to the rest of my app, when I changed to UTF-8 in the web.config I got errors at other parts of the webb app.

    Since no other solution came up I solved it with this crappy function:
     
    Private Function aao(ByVal str As String) As String
       str = Replace(str, "Ã¥", "å")
       str = Replace(str, "ä", "ä")
       str = Replace(str, "ö", "ö")
       Return str
    End Function
