hi,
I'm trying to use unicode function into a cgi script with no success.
#-------- cedric.py---
#!/usr/bin/python
import os,sys
import cgi
import cgitb; cgitb.enable()
print "Content-Type: text/html\
"+os.linesep+"\
"+os.linesep+"<TITLE>hipo'potame</TITLE>"
sys.stdout.flush()
content = u'c\xe9dric'
print content
#---------------------
when I invoke it from my xterm, I get:
> python cedric.py
Content-Type: text/html
<TITLE>hipo'potame</TITLE>
cédric
but the same does not work on apache:
/home/system/briner/obsadminwww/cedric.py
6 "+os.linesep+"\
7 "+os.linesep+"<TITLE>hipo'potame</TITLE>"
8 sys.stdout.flush()
9 content = u'c\xe9dric'
10 print content
content = u'c\xe9dric'
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9' in
position 1: ordinal not in range(128)
args = ('ascii', u'c\xe9dric', 1, 2, 'ordinal not in range(128)')
encoding = 'ascii'
end = 2
object = u'c\xe9dric'
reason = 'ordinal not in range(128)'
start = 1
As if the stdout as to pbe in ascii??
any idea on how to do this
