Umlaute äöü in HTMLEdit

[roland]

Is it possible to use special chars in the htmledit when it is used in the grid as editcontrol?
I configured a column in such a way, that its contents can be edited with a htmledit and if I enter äöü it first looks ok, but when I close the form and return it looks like ���.
There is also a DB participating since the data in the grid is stored in the DB, but the DB tables should all be setup with UTF-8.
So I have no idea, what could cause this problem.
Any ideas?

Hello

If you domthis simle test:

1- Input umlautes manually in HTML editor.

2- Clicking a button, get the HTMLEditor.Content, and save into the same DB table

3- clear the HTMLEditor.Content, and load from the DB, what happens? What is the content before and after?

Hi.
Sorry that it took so long. Too much other work.
This test is working without a problem if I use a firedac query and parameters.
My setup is htmledit->jqgrid->dataprovider->firedac query.
I guess the problem could be caused between jqgrid and htmledit, jqgrid and dataprovider or dataprovider and firedac query.
What do you think should I try out next?
Thanks.
