convert utf-8 to iso-8859-1

OK, if i add
<cfset setEncoding("Form", "utf-8")> at the top of my
x_fichier_cherche.cfm it works fine

Thank's a lot for your help.

datatype of "titre" is varchar(250) and "contenu" is text
using the

I think it's jdbc driver (case of my test computer)

Here is a part of the content of my application.cfm
<cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="iso-8859-1">
<cfcontent type="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<cfset setEncoding("URL", "iso-8859-1")>
<cfset setEncoding("Form", "iso-8859-1")>

data stored in plain text,char,varchar datatypes (ie not "N")? using the ODBC or
JDBC (it would be listed as ms sql server in the db drivers list) driver?

(latin-1) is fine.

add to top of all your cf pages:
<cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="iso-8859-1">

in your application.cfm (or it's equivalent) add:
<cfset setEncoding("form","iso-8859-1")>
<cfset setEncoding("url","iso-8859-1")>
<cfcontent type="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

if you think you might need other languages, including the euro symbol, then you
should consider unicode. change your text columsn to "N" type (nText, nChar,
nVarChar) & swap the latin-1 encodings in the tags above to utf-8.

data stored in plain text,char,varchar datatypes (ie not "N")? using the ODBC or
JDBC (it would be listed as ms sql server in the db drivers list) driver?

if you think you might need other languages, including the euro symbol, then you
should consider unicode. change your text columsn to "N" type (nText, nChar,
nVarChar) & swap the latin-1 encodings in the tags above to utf-8.

I'm not the owner of the database... I just use it.

The code :

where titre like '%#form.id#%'
or contenu like '%#form.id#%'
order by rubrique

<cfelse>
<cfset l_fichier.recordcount = 0>
</cfif>

<cfoutput>
<b> Résultat de votre recherche #form.id#</b>
<div id="trans">
<cfif l_fichier.recordcount EQ 0>
<div id="resultat">Aucun fichier ne correspond à votre demande</div>
<cfelse>

<cfloop query="l_fichier">
#lsdateformat(date_modif,'dd/mm/yyy')# - #titre#<br/>

show the code for that. it seems your encoding isn't the same back-to-front. is
it getting to the db ok? what db? what encoding in the db?

Couldn't you just do everything in utf-8?

Maybe it is more simple with an example :
http://habitat-developpement.tm.p15.siteinternet.com/test/
If you seach energie it works...
If oyu search énergie there is no result because it search "énergie"...

well you might not be able to as iso-8859-1 is a subset of unicode. what
languages are you dealing with? are you sure they will fit into iso-8859-1? i
guess maybe have a look at this:
