Dear web gods:
After much, much, much struggle with unicode, many an hour reading all the
examples online, coding them, testing them, ripping them apart and putting
them back together, I am humbled. Therefore, I humble myself before you to
seek guidance on a simple python unicode cgi-bin script
Thanks for the reply, Jack. I tried setting mode to binary but it had no
affect.

I don't know for sure the encoding of the file. I'm assuming it has no

John & Martin,
Thanks for your help and kind words of encouragement. Still, what you have
suggested doesn't seem to work, unless I'm not understanding your directive
to encode as 'windows-1252'. Here's my program in full:
#!C:/Program Files/Python23/python.exe
import cgi, cgitb
import sys, code

Browser is both IE and Firefox. IE is defaulting to UTF8. If I force it to

p.s. I modified the code to break things out more explicitly:
#!C:/Program Files/Python23/python.exe
import cgi, cgitb
import sys, codecs

John and Martin,
Thanks for your help. However, I have identified the culprit to be with
Apache and the command:
AddDefaultCharset utf-8
which forces my browser to utf-8 encoding.
It looks like your suggestions to change charset were incorrect. My example
works equally well with charset=utf
Hi Duncan, thanks for the reply.

I'm developing a cgi-bin application that must be unicode sensitive. I'm
striving for a UTF8 implementation. I'm running python 2.3 on a development
machine (windows xp) and a server (windows xp server). Both environments are
running Apache 2.2 with the same configuration file.
The problem is t
your questions, in this example, I believe the exception was caused by
trying to do a count of the number of times a string appears in an array.
One of the strings was unicode and the other was encoded by Python by
default.

Hi Fredrik,
Thanks again for your feedback. I am much obliged.
Indeed, I am forced to be exteremely rigorous about decoding on the way in
and encoding on the way out everywhere in my program, just as you say. Your
advice is excellent and concurs with other sources of unicode expertise.

I'm running Python 2.3 and calling pyTTS. I've had it working forever.
Today, I ran out of disk space. After deleting some of my personal files,
for no apparent reason, pyTTS no longer runs.
For the statement

I get the error message:
