empty fiels gives "Â" character - bvdveen - Sep 19th, 2011 Dear Ben, Another strange thing....when I submit a form with empty fields I get a strange  character...any ideas? Thanks in advance Greetz from Cheese Town (Gouda) RE: empty fiels gives "Â" character - Ben - Sep 19th, 2011 Hey from Vancouver! Interesting problem... What field type is being used for the field(s) in which the character appears? - Ben RE: empty fiels gives "Â" character - bvdveen - Sep 19th, 2011 Hi Ben! The field type is a dropdown box....but even if I changed it into a textarea field it returned the character. Maybe it is not the formfield type but more the excel conversion (export module?) giving this result? Greetz Bert RE: empty fiels gives "Â" character - Ben - Sep 19th, 2011 Yeah, very possibly. Would you mind checking the database just to see if there's a character stored in the field? If not, it's either something with the Export Type or Excel itself. I haven't heard this reported before, so maybe it's a configuration setting with Excel that's doing something funky. - Ben RE: empty fiels gives "Â" character - bvdveen - Sep 20th, 2011 [attachment=149][attachment=150]dj[attachment=149][attachment=150] (Sep 19th, 2011, 8:15 PM)Ben Wrote: Yeah, very possibly. Hi Ben, I checked the database.....the fields are empty there. My form html code concerning the formfield in question: In the attachments you can see the formfield html code. Greetz again from Gouda Bert Hi Ben, I just discovered that when I set the formfield to textarea or textbox everything is fine. Strange thing remains however: when I change back to dropdown the error doesn't reproduce itself no more. The database remains empty at al points (col-6 en col_8 by the way) Greetz Bert RE: empty fiels gives "Â" character - bvdveen - Sep 20th, 2011 Hi Ben! I deleted the form....updated all modules until the latest version, resubmitted the form I had (with 352 fields...you know me) and now the character doesn't show up! Still doesn't solve the issue really...but I have no problems now! Cheers Bert RE: empty fiels gives "Â" character - Ben - Sep 20th, 2011 Excellent! But oh man, sounds like a pain to reconfigure - 352 fields... yowch! I wonder what was causing it... - Ben |
