    Contour seems to have issues with Japanese characters in both captions and answers.

    Hi. I have some issues with contour which you might be able to help me sort out.

    Short summary of the issues:

    Issue 1.

    If a caption starts with a Japanese character ex: "" the submitted

    entries will not be listed backend. However the rendering and overall usage of 

    the form frontend works fine.

    Issue 2:

     

     

     

     

    If an answer in a form contains a Japanese character  the character is not 

    rendered out in the entries section. If you add an answer like this "my text "

     only "my text" is displayed and exported.


    Testsetup:

    Clean umbraco 4.0.3 install with runway.

     

     

     

     

    Installed contour 1.0.9.1 downloaded here: http://nightly.umbraco.org/Umbraco%20Contour/1.0.9.1/
    Machine running Windows 7 64bit with IIS


    Recreate issue 1:

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Create a form with one field and name the caption "". Include the form in


    one of the runway pages, and make submit some text to it. Head back to the form


    in the contour section and click entries. The entries view is now

     empty.


    However contour says that its "Showing 1 to 0 of 1 entries".

    The submitted e

    ntry is also present in the database


    Recreate issue 2:

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Create a form with one field and name the caption "A". Include the form in 

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    one of the runway pages, and submit the following text to the form "my text"

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Head back to the form in the contour section and click entries. Now you will

     see one entry.

     

    However it only displays "my text" and not "my text" as you 

    would expect. In the

     

    database however the record seems to be stored correctly

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     


    Please let me know if you need more information or there is some information i might have left out

    Hmm. The formatting got a bit messed up. And the Japanese characters i pasted in disappeared. However it should work if you find a Japanese character here:

    Hi Tim. Thank you for your quick reply.

    Do you have any date planned for next maintenance release? This is kind of a show stopper on our current project, so it would be good to have a time frame to report back to our client.
