Having “Meta character set” enabled in the Domino Web Engine section in our Server document, the server adds a line as follows on each page it creates:“”.
The charset is dependent on the situation: when a node is on the HTML document, and that node contains any (Domino generated) form elements ( tag for example), the charset is as above.
Otherwise the line reads
“”.
Why is that? And how can I change the setting, so it is always the same?
tia for hints!
Background: I want to place a passthru HTML Input field on a $$ViewTemplate form in order to allow any user (even Readers) to enter a search string. However, since the $$ViewTemplate form does not contain any form elements, Domino adds the US-ASCII charset directive, and by that any special characters in the search string (such as the german u Umlaut) are converted into HTML character entities (such as ü).
