Preformatted label with special characters

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8

Hi,

So, as the topic states…

I am essentially building a comments UI panel; simple textarea for input with the message being displayed as a preformatted label.

All is swell except for the display of certain special characters. Please see attached image.

Can someone enlighten me as to the cause?

Thanks,

Hi Joel,

Vaadin uses UTF-8 consistently, so I’d check whether the strings containing special chars are also valid UTF-8 or something else.
