hi all:
   I load a shapefile into GeoServer 1.7.0, everything
is ok. it publish a wms service, and wfs service. When
i use getFeaturInfo to retrieve the information about
the feature, it return with html results which include
chinese fields and chinese value. The most strange is
that the chinese fields returned right, the value
returned wrong like"???". why?

We're experiencing issues with data in charset other
than the english ones. What kind of data source are you
using? Can I have a copy of it to do some tests?

Hi Andrea. We've had problems updating and inserting Unicode (in our case, Inuktitut syllabics) with WFS-T before but didn't have time to nail down where the problem was.

A handy site to help you out with content for testing is:

http://www.inuktitutcomputing.ca/Inuktitut/Transcoder/Transcoder.jsp?lang=en

Just type something in and transcode from Roman Alphabet to Unicode. If you are on a mac, the glyphs should render fine (the Euphemia UCAS font is included on macs).

If you are on Windows, you'll need to install a font that supports those glyphs. A collection of unicode fonts that have glyphs for the characters generated by the transcoder can be found here:

http://www.inuktitutcomputing.ca/ressources_globales/en/InuktitutFontsAndDrivers.htm

I hope that helps. If you are digging in and/or developing test routines, hopefully you can include reading/writing unicode to postgis via WFS/WFS-T.

If I get back to that myself, I'll be sure to update you with my findings and/or file bugs.
