It could be that the email component, email client, or SMTP server can not handle the character set being used. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

It could be that you need to change the forum software to add a header to tell the server what character set is being used, but as I have only used western charaters I wouldn't know. maybe a search on google would give you a better clue. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

It could be the fields in the database is not setup to use the Hebrew character set. Or the page coding when reading in data from the registration form. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Hi, Old topic but I have a question on it... If the forum software needs to be changed which files should be changed? Only send email in functions? Some other files? By the way in order to see hebrew properly and to write it properly to the DB this line should be on top of every page: <%@CodePage=1255 Language=VBScript%> Regards, Goran |

Hi All, Well I have a solution in case anyone wants to know.... What you should do is add the following line to the send_email.asp file in functions folder: .SetLocaleIDs(65001) (that's if you're using CDONTS, I haven't tried anything else) That will handle the characters in Unicode :) Regards, Goran |
