C# WPF URL/TItle from Firefox Swedish letters
I am using this code to get current URL from Firefox
It woks greate, but when entering Swedish website I get problems
Example:
Accessing http://www.binero.se/
The WPF acplication gives me
http://www.binero.se/,Sveriges v?nligaste webbhotell - Binero,
Its supose to be
http://www.binero.se/,Sveriges vänligaste webbhotell - Binero,
How can I solve this so the URL and title can show swedish letters, Å Ä Ö :)
Thanks
Btw if you are going to try this code I recommend installing NDde
http://ndde.codeplex.com/
DdeClient dde = new DdeClient("Firefox", "WWW_GetWindowInfo");
dde.Connect();
string url = dde.Request("URL", int.MaxValue);
dde.Disconnect();It woks greate, but when entering Swedish website I get problems

That is an issue with Unicode encoding, and I don't see how you can get around that issue with the DdeClient. Where are you getting the implementation for DdeClient?
ASKER
Yes, I think the same. its wery strange.. Will post the whole code most be something I have done somewhere..?
I know..its alot :S..but maybe it helps?
Thanks

Where are you getting the DdeClient from?
ASKER
Hmmm? Well I got it from Visual studio NuGet package manager, just searched for it and downloaded it from there.
ASKER
The strange thing, it works when using IE but not firefox, tried also to change encoding to something else (in the webbrowser). Its set to Unicode(UTF-8) by default.
