So: Having exported Unicode text from my Devawriter Pro to HTML (which
shows up in a Web Browser alright *IFF* the text encoding
is set to 'Unicode'), on REIMPORTING that HTML file I get something that
does NOT look the same at all.
My script WAS set to this:
set the htmlText of fld "fld" to URL ("file:" & it)
trying to "be clever" I changed it to:
set the htmlText of fld "fld" to the uniEncode of URL ("file:" & it)
and got DIFFERENT gobbledegook (sheer joy).
I changed things to this:
setthehtmlTextoffld "fld" touniEncode(URL ("file:" & it),"w")
and got a line of question marks ????????????????????????????
this:
setthehtmlTextoffld "fld" touniEncode(URL ("file:" & it),"Unicode") did
the same,
this:
setthehtmlTextoffld "fld" touniEncode(URL ("file:" & it),"UTF8") gave me
something
where about 90% of the text was displayed correctly; the rest was nonsense.
