1. try test on other browsers in same machine or on a different machine, to see and determine it's not a browser/machine setting issue.

2. check your content of your pages, if it's a database driven content, check your data in database make sure it's in proper format.

3. format your asp pages, make sure it's encoded in UTF-8. like add this in your page:

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

>> Variable is undefined: 'theAction'

Make sure you declare your variable, try add this after the line:

 Option Explicit?


like in your asp scripts, add:

<%

 Option Explicit

Dim theAction '< Add this

%>


OR remark the line:

 Option Explicit


For the UTF-8 unicode issue, you may add this line to your script as well:

response.charset = "utf-8"

>>i am the only one the get the error

So, what browser are you using? what if you try on other browsers? Make sure it didn't pre-set the encoding of the page? Or what if you try to change the encoding of your browser, will the content appears to be correct?

 

by: yairabPosted on 2009-09-13 at 08:28:01ID: 25320550

As what I mentioned on my first post, I did mentioned to check on the encoding issue. Do you think it's fair to close this question by claiming you found the solution yourself?
