[z3-five] SOLVED Re: UTF-8, Zope 2.9.x and MSIE

[Roman Susi]

hI!

It seems, this small piece of code solves the problem (of course, it
does mean that  webapp doesn use anything except for utf8, which is my
case):

from Products.Five.form import EditView as EV, AddView as AV

class EditView(EV):
    charsets = ("utf-8",)

    def _setPageEncoding(self):
        self.request.RESPONSE.setHeader(
            'Content-Type', 'text/html; charset=utf-8')

class AddView(AV):
    charsets = ("utf-8",)

    def _setPageEncoding(self):
        self.request.RESPONSE.setHeader(
            'Content-Type', 'text/html; charset=utf-8')


Then every part of a project should import these mended view-classes and
not those from Five.


Thank you for hints which came in privite email!

Roman
