copying simple text field to richtext field

[Francisco Maria Moyano Casco]

Hi,
I'm having problems trying to copying text from a text field to a richtext field.

I had success with normal characters, but when I try with special characters and some others (ñ,Ñ,áéíóú), it starts to behave unnormal.

Some example of the code I'm using is:

@classmethod
def prepare_richtext(cls,message=''):
from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulStoneSoup
import cgi
res = ''
message = message.decode('utf-8')
message = unicode(message)
message = cgi.escape(message).encode('ascii', 'xmlcharrefreplace')
res += "<div><b>"\
+(datetime.now()+timedelta(hours=-3)).strftime("%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S")\
+" - "
res += message+" </b></div>"
res = unicode(BeautifulStoneSoup(res,
convertEntities=BeautifulStoneSoup.ALL_ENTITIES))
return res

For example: i wrote one single "ñ" on the text field and goes unnormal (doesn't copy the character, just add some other; and tryton ask me once and again to save the form when I want to reload/close it). But, when I wrote two ("ññ"), it goes well.

Regards.
Francisco

It looks like it is. It's there anyway to force/set the encoding to chardet?

There is a hook to solve it. Simple using the comment tag <!-- -->, and write inside 2 or 3 ñ, but the richtext doesn't recognize the <!-- -_> comment tags.

Thanks

I guess you could escape all non-ascii chars.

Thanks for the answer, but got nothing.
I guess is the chardet and the auto/heuristic determination of the encoding.On a python console, importing got the same behaviour.
Once again, thanks
