[mapserver-users] Character encoding in Query Results

[Steve Lime]

I'm afraid this is a bug and should be reported in Trac. There's no code
in the template output that
capitalizes on the encoding values set elsewhere. One approach might be
to add encoding support
to the [item ...] tag. If you'd file a ticket along with a simple test
case I'd appreciate it.
