I got an error when I am using admin interface to submit some forms as
following the Django book (CH6).
When the form in admin interface saving.
Traceback (most recent call last):

UnicodeDecodeError at /admin/books/author/add/
'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 0: ordinal not in
range(128)
Not sure if that is only my n00b skillz kicking on, it should be a
direct result of the return string as here:
from django.db import models
# ...
class Author(models.Model):
salutation = models.CharField(maxlength=10)
first_name = models.CharField(maxlength=30)
last_name = models.CharField(maxlength=40)
email = models.EmailField()
headshot = models.ImageField(upload_to= ('/tmp'))
class Admin:
pass
def __unicode__(self):
return self.first_name # this string is what I am talking
about
I am using postgresSQL in utf-8 so I thought some non-ascii input
would pass through nicely in the admin interface. But it didn't.
The item would still be saved into the database and viewable in the
admin interface.
After some testing, only the one declared in return clause
(self.first_name in this case) being filled with utf-8 text would
generate this error. If all other fields is filled with utf-8 char and
not the one returned, it would go normally.
And putting "return unicode(self.first_name)" wouldn't help either.
Please have a look to this, and should I repost this as a ticket?

Alan
