Hello Stefan,
thank you for the reply. The explanation does not solve my problem though.
1) Could you elaborate, why the body text field CORRECTLY writes the character while the attribute fields write and display the HTML code?
2) If I understand you correctly the problem also contradicts your statement: "When an existing elog entry gets shown by the browser, the code is translated back to the character." and is visible in this very post. The subject field writes and displays it incorrectly, while the body text writes and displays it perfectly OK. See: Č č ?
3) We do not use any scripts. If we were to use a script to replace the HTML code with the actual character, the attribute fields would still display È instead of Č. Also, I have no idea how to write such a script. :)
Thanks,
Matej

Actually unicode characters are converted by your browser into HTML code (such as Č) where 268 decimal = 10C hex. elog just writes to file what it gets from the browser. When an existing elog entry gets shown by the browser, the code is translated back to the character. Why do you care what is written to the log file? If you use scripts or so to parse your log files, you have to adapt them to correctly decode HTML encoded characters. This is necessary since log files are ASCII and thus encode one charecter in one byte. Your Slovenian characters require two bytes in unicode, so some kind of "special" encoding is necessary.
