This controller displays the word Español when run as a page. But when LOADed, it displays Espa�ol. Something was lost in translation!
# default controller def index(): response.flash='Español' return dict(message=T('Español')) # views/default/index.html {{extend 'layout.html'}} {{=LOAD('default','index.load')}} # views/default/index.load <h1>{{=message}}</h1> Per my previous posts on the matter of unicode, this is probably what I've been tripping over.
