I had to do it recently, reading from mysql and pushing data into a
browser by cherryPy.
I used :
try:
val= dbString.decode('utf8').encode('iso-8859-1')
except UnicodeDecodeError:
val= dbString
The 'try:' was needed because of some extra-character on top of the 7
bits limit raising an exception.
I have no more explanations about that, and I must say it was a pain in
the neck to find a solution.
I guess in your case, you have to replace iso-8859-1 by something else
in the case it's not strictly the same that cp1250. The '4.9.2 Standard
Encodings' documentation section give some explanations.
