Special characters in text

[whizzkid]

Hello,

I'm rendering texts out of a database, and they use special characters.like é and  ë

 

Can anyone tell me how to get pixi to render these special characters? 

 

Here you can see the output I get:

var stage = new PIXI.Stage(0x333355);var renderer = PIXI.autoDetectRenderer(400, 300);document.body.appendChild(renderer.view);var text = new PIXI.Text("eacute : é   eUmlaut: ë", {font:"20px Arial", fill:"white"});stage.addChild(text)renderer.render(stage); 

thanks!

Hello,

 

It works perfectly for me even with some funny special chars: http://jsfiddle.net/92uRa/

Do you have set the encoding of your html page on the head ? <meta charset="utf-8" />

Hm indeed it works. I see now that the text I pasted here, copied back again  has a different character in place than the one I copied from my datafile (which contains the texts)

So my own example works for me now, once I copied it back from this webpage how nice.

 

Ok, so something is wonky in my data and pixi can display the characters correctly, thats good to know.

 

I should be able to fix that when I get the actual text from our database instead of an export file (which I'm using right now)

 

thanks!
