Description
Hi all,
I have an WFS layer which is provided in UTF-8. The strings are parsed incorrectly which ends up in hieroglyphic labels.
Now there's no way to specify the encoding in the layer's properties. The drop-down menu is just empty for any WFS layer.
thanks and best regards,
Marius

Or, layer dscAll on

This is a (old MapServer) server issue. The response to GetFeature has a heading but the content is in UTF-8. I don't think we want to complicate the code to workaround the server issue. MapServer 7.0 has now better support for UTF-8.
