I am using Pure image upload in Vietnam, where we use UNICODE and encode html with charset=utf-8.

I have a form that uses Javascript to return errors when a user fills it in incorectly. I copy and paste UNICODE Vietnamese translations into my Javascript, and it displays the messages. No problem.

However, there is an upload behavior on the same form. When a user provides an image that's too small, too big, etc. it displays a message - obviously in English. So I opened the incPureUpload.js, and copied in translations in UNICODE for each of the Upload error messages. My problem is that the error messages being generated from the Upload behavior - in incPureUpload.js - are not displaying correctly (uninterpretable gobbledegoop).

Any thoughts???

You should save your file with UTF-8 encoding. Not all editors support it, so make sure you edit the js-file with an editor that supports it.

Yes, I use utf-8 encoding for all my HTML with UNICODE, and ordinarily have no problems with javascript messages in UNICODE.

But even from the same UTF-8 encoded page (in which I successfully have javascript alerts giving form input errors in Vietnamese) the errors coming from the incPureUpload.js file are not displaying correctly.

I would assume that javascript alerts in the incPureUpload.js are displayed with encoding that is determined by the page that has requested it - i.e. my upload page, or incPureUpload.asp?. I know that my upload page is encoded correctly because it displays other (non-upload) javascript alerts correctly.

I cannot see how I can change the encoding of the incPureUpload.js. I would have thought this is inhereted from the page that includes it, but seems not to be the case...

Any ideas?

Use notepad to edit and then use the SaveAs option to save the file, you can here select that the file must be UTF-8 encoded.
