This is the main issue. Currently, YAML::Syck is mucking about with the internal utf8 flags, so even it you pass LoadFile() a file handle opened with the correct encoding, the values returned are not decoded, and so are double-encoded when Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::finalize() does it's encode(). I've added a hack to load_config_file(), so that the contents returned by filenames ending with 'yaml' or 'yml' are forcefully decoded. I intend contacting the author of YAML::Syck though, to figure out the correct solution. > 2) The same goes for the TT snippets.

I've edited HTML::FormFu::Render::base::xhtml() to pass the "ENCODING => 'UTF-8'" option to TT. You should also add this to your catalyst myapp.yml config file: View::TT: ENCODING: UTF-8 Carl _______________________________________________ HTML-FormFu mailing list HTML-FormFu@lists.scsys.co.uk http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/html-formfu
