hi! because of an very old-style datagateway which is only supporting ASCCI7 chars i have to transform or delete special characters from data/text (xml) before i sent through the gateway. Unfortunately there is no other way... (like encoding ..) The challenge is, that the data/text can contain all used special characters from any european (latin) language. I know how the replace germans '�'(ae), '�'(ue) and so on.. but i have no idea how to handle the characters of other languages. (specially nordic ones...) So anyone can help me with that? A list with each used character, code and their replacement whould be great :o) I know ... it's hardly ever infeasible.... bye, Markus PS: next challenge ... how to handle asian characters? ;)
