nlapiRequestURL and Asian header data
I am employing an afterSubmit user event script on Customer records that's meant to submit data to a web server we have running ASP. The script uses nlapiRequestURL() to post the data over SSL with HTTP Auth.
It works great on U.S. characters contained in our Netsuite customer records but when data gets sent over that uses international characters, they are replaced with question marks, indicating a character set issue.
I have verified that the web server and database on our end support Asian characters; as I can submit this type of data through a web browser.
I must be missing something in preparing the nlapiRequestURL call in order to support the international character sets. Can anyone shed some light on this?
