I have a UTF-8 string which I want to output as ascii and have the UTF8
characters converted to numeric character references.
I tried using Encode with the FB_HTMLCREFS fail back option enabled, but for
the 2 byte UTF8 characters, 2 incorrect char refs were printed out instead
of the correct one.
You mean like this:
--------------------------------------
#!perl
use Encode;
my $s = chr(0x100)."4";
my $n = encode('ascii',$s,Encode::FB_HTMLCREF);
print "$n\n";
__END__
----------------------------------------------
Works for me:
nick(_at_)llama:/home/p4work/mail> perl /tmp/try
Ā4
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks
Aaron
