I have a javascript method which is receiving a UTF-8 encoded string (ViewBag.errorText), and uses this as a parameter to a new function.
The problem is that the text displayed in show_error_dialog
is displaying the html escaped characters (æø
etc') and not the intended ("æåø" etc.).
I presume the problem is the enclosed <text>
tags but can't seem to get around this.
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
function performLoadOperations() {
@if(ViewBag.errorText!= null) {
<text>show_error_dialog('@ViewBag.errorText');</text>
}
}
</script>
I think all Razor-inserted text is HTML-encoded by default. Use Html.Raw()
to pass the string unencoded.
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
function performLoadOperations() {
@if(ViewBag.errorText!= null) {
<text>show_error_dialog('@Html.Raw(ViewBag.errorText)');</text>
}
}
</script>
Use:
@Html.Raw(Ajax.JavaScriptStringEncode(Model))
to safely insert values into javascript
I'm not sure but i think there was unescape() function with js. Try to pass your text with it. It might help
just use javascript escape function:
function encode_utf8( s )
{
return unescape( encodeURIComponent( s ) );
}
function decode_utf8( s )
{
return decodeURIComponent( escape( s ) );
}
