GET Object - Post data: special characters

I am using the Post data through the GET object to send variables to my webserver, and my problem is that special characters like æ, ø å, ö, ä etc is not displayed correctly on the server.
I have set the server to use iso-8859-1 encoding on request and responce. Still, these characters is retrieved as gibberish.

When using GET variables there is no problem, only when using POST data.

So what I wonder is, is there an error in the Get object's POST data function, or is it simply me doing something wrong on the server? I am pretty much out of ideas on what to do on the server if that's the case..


Perhaps someone try to send those letters to their webserver using POST data and see if it is working?

I don't think the GET object has been ported to Unicode.

Not working for me either, same issue.

Ah, good to know it is not just me :)

I did have these issues half a year ago as well, and I am pretty sure Jamie told me that the Get object should be able to handle these special characters. That's why I have done everything possible serverside, and still no luck. I put this aspect of the app aside until now.

I assume it must be a bug then. Can Jamie or someone else from Clickteam confirm that it is a bug?

I don't think it is a bug, I just don't think that it supports those character ranges.
