> Why are you using unidecode?
I am using unidecode because
1- in this LC lesson
http://lessons.runrev.com/m/4071/l/20441-unicode
it says :
The keys to using UTF-8 text in Livecode are the uniEncode() and
uniDecode() functions. Let's say you've gotten some UTF-8 text from a web
site and you want to display it in your Livecode stack. You store it in a
file called myUniText.ut8. This is how you would read it in:
put url ("binfile:/path/to/file/myUniText.ut8") into tRawTxt
set the unicodetext of fld "display" to uniencode(tRawTxt,"UTF8")
2- Mark suggested to use that function in his 1st reply to my question...
