Question : Problem displaying Swedish characters

I have a file chooser CGI form which lists all file names for the user to chose one file from. The files to choose are listed in the CGI form along with a radio button. All the file names are having swedish characters. So , the problem now is , when its displayed on the CGI, some characters appear differently. I am not sure if its because of not using Unicode::String module, in the  perl code used in CGI. Why is it happening ? If anybody has any thoughts on this, plz help me out.

Thanks in advance.

Answer : Problem displaying Swedish characters

Hello.

I believe this is a matter of encoding.
I assume that you are trying to display those Swedish characters in a web page.
I am Japanese and I had my share of same kind of issues myself.
I have no knowledge of Swedish encoding, but when I have to display something in Japanese I put a line in the section of html file. It looks something like:

or


Plus, when I use character set 'euc-jp', I have to upload the file using 'euc' encoding.
I think these are the kinds of things you have to do.

I don't use Unicode::String module or anything of the sort.

I'm sorry I'm not too specific.
