SUBJECT: RE: mangling characters in large data set This definitely sound like a character encoding issue.
I believe Rails 2 defaults to setting $KCODE for UTF-8. FasterCSV should work perfectly with that, if it is fed UTF-8 data.
Is that the encoding of the file? If not, you can use the standard iconv library to convert it.
Also check the encoding of your database tables. They need to be set to receive UTF-8 data as well. | |
