Arabic Text Shows Encoded












0















I have a problem that file encoding was windows-1256 and it shows strange text when using ie11 and arabic text, so i changed the file encoding to utf-8 and it works fine but i need to convert back the already inserted text.



am using sql server and vb.net



this is a sample text (طھط¬ط±ط¨ط©) to be changed.

  • Encoding.Convert. windows-1256 is not a great choice as Encoding if you plan to have Web interaction. It can be used as local CodePage, but if you need to reach an international audience, it becomes a problem. windows-1256 offers poor composition for arabic letters. It should be used only locally.
