update manager and character set

[hicker]

hi,
i couldn't get turkish character set from update manager's response text. i'm using iso-8859-9 charset.
i'm updating with this code:

var newtab= new Ext.ContentPanel('content',{title: 'Genel', fitToFrame:true, closable:false});
var updater = newtab.getUpdateManager();
updater.loadScripts = true;
updater.setDefaultUrl('taslak.html');
updater.refresh();

This is a server-side issue.

It's up to you to ensure that, on the server side, you encode the character data into bytes using a certain encoding, and then inform the browser that that was the encoding used in the "Content-Type" header:

Content-Type text/html;charset=<whatever character encoding you used>

hi animal,
i'm requesting a page with no headers like this tab.html

<div id ="container" style="padding:2px">
Genel Başlık</div>

i tried to change response header of update manager and finally do this and it worked ok. but do you have any idea how to make this solution out of yui core...i've added overridemimetype before send
connection.js line 331 (in package alpha 2 rev 5)

o.conn.overrideMimeType('text/html; charset=iso-8859-9');
o.conn.send(postData || null);

hi again
i found a solution with the code below:

updater.setDefaultUrl('taslak.html');
updater.refresh();
updater.transaction.conn.overrideMimeType('text/html; charset=iso-8859-9');

[Animal]

That's fine if your server will always use iso-8859-9

Use the Content-Type header for the purpose for which it was designed! Set the charset element to the encoding scheme that the server is using.

Again: this is a server-side issue that you must take care of in your ASP script

thanx for your reply animal. can u pls give me a simple example asp script for sending content containing turkish characters.
like this
<%
response.write "şığüçö"
%>
