Hi,

does anyone know how to administrate the system for special characters like "degrees celsius".
We use Oracle developer to run web applications on a UNIX server, and IE5.5 as
a browser on the front end.
Now, if one types in special charakters on the PC browser , Oracle stores something
else and, more worse , displays different characters when quering the data again...

The database -, shell environments and the home page is set to iso8859-1 charcter set,
but still it doesn' t work *g* !

So, what's wrong here ? Received on Fri Feb 09 2001 - 11:09:25 CET
