<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Hi,</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I was looking at MapScript which would be an
option, but due to the following fact I think that there must be an "easier"
solution maybe with some XML settings or something like that - when I
click on the "Identify" tool and the result is open in the div
"content_results_form" as a part of the GeoMoose window, the characters DO NOT
appear correctly. But when I get the direct link to the MapServer
call (vith FireBug) that is being called by Geomoose, e.g. "<a rel="nofollow">http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/home/webuser/identif.map&mapxy=468286.9195712629%20125082.02776175489&imgext=468282.0218372162%20125066.72580171067%20468308.97320987994%20125086.39975033894&layers=Boxes&imgsize=974%20711&mode=nquery</a>"
in a separated window or a tab, those characters DO appear correctly. And also
when I set the charset of that window when the data is appearing correctly the
same charset as the GeoMoose window has, they look as they should.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">That is the fact that is bothering me and I suspect
that some method which performs the "call" of the Mapserver from GeoMoose isn't
capable of getting data differently than in utf-8, but it proves that MapServer
is returning the data in the iso-8859.2 charset correctly.</font></div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">I
think this would be a question for the mapserver mailing list. I have
never used international characters so I have no experience with them. I
wonder if it is an issue with the MapInfo format. I do know mapserver encodes
the attributes for HTML, but will leave them as is if you do something like
this:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">[DBASE item name],[DBASE item name_esc],[DBASE item
name_raw] </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;">Item
name from the attribute table of a queried layer. Only attributes for the
active query layers are accessible. Case must be the same as what is stored in
the DBASE file. ArcView, for example, uses all caps for shapefile field names.
Available only when processing query results.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;">By
default the attributes are encoded especially for HTML representation. In
addition the escaped version (for use in URLs) as well as the raw data is
available.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">This
is from the mapserver website under the template reference guide
(http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/templatereference/referencemanual-all-pages).
Maybe it wonąt do this for MapInfo files.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">I have been further
investigating this issue and I am out of ideas what to do. Let me explain
more. I have data with those symbols in a MapInfo (.TAB file has the entry
!charset WindowsLatin2 for charset definition). As I mentioned before,
MapServer returns correct data and when I open it in the different browser
everything is displayed as it should be.</span></p></div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">But when the
results are open in the div inside geomoose, it is always (and I mean always)
displayed in utf-8 encoding. I have found out that it is typical behaveour for
setRequestHeader to always return data in utf-8. I tried adding
"charset=iso-8859-2" to those two setRequestHeader calls, but I get no
different results. </span></p></div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Now I don't know if
I should also write on the MapServer's mailing list if there is a chance to
convert the data from mode=nquery to specified encoding since I think that I
MUST get the results of the query in utf-8 from Mapserver otherwise this won't
work. But searching around, there is no option for that.
