C# MVC Textbox MultiLanguage

Question

I have a view with a TextBox for input. However it seems like it doesn't support all Spanish characters. The upside down question mark doesn't seem to work. Is there a simple way to get around this?

  <%= Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Product.Name, new { style = "width:400px", maxlength = 150 })%>

What HTML is it generating for you? The TextBoxFor helper generates a pretty simple <input type="text" /> tag so it should just work. — marcind

Yeah its an input type text. I'll try to trace it again. It might be a problem somewhere else. — MaxGeek

Things to check:

Inside your web.config you are using utf-8:

<globalization requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8"/>

Inside the <head> section of your site you have a <meta> tag:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

Your view files are utf-8 encoded with BOM on the disk
