Re^2: Confusing UTF-8 bug in CGI-script

[wanradt]

Thank, you! Locale is evil, once i wrote even node about it (any use of 'use locale'?), but i don't blame it here. At least commenting it out does have no effect.

So, are you sure that your script is encoded as UTF-8? Because that's what you tell Perl:

use utf8;

If it is not encoded as that, that's likely what leads to these decoding errors and/or the crashes.

Yes, i am. The hardcoded UTF-8 characters in script are showed properly. My full environment is UTF-8 and i work with them years. Still, here i am and could not find the bug.
