HTML-CHARSET attribute

(WebSpeed only)

The ABL version (as opposed to the MIME version) of the code page name of a Web request. Set by ABL when a WebSpeed application incorporates dynamic code page support. The default is blank.

Data type: CHARACTER

Access: Readable/Writeable

Applies to: WEB-CONTEXT system handle

Once the AVM sets HTML-CHARSET, each time a Web browser sends a Web request to the application:

1. The request is received by the WebSpeed Agent. The AVM converts it from the HTML-CHARSET code page to the Agent's CPINTERNAL code page.
2. The Agent responds to the request with a Web page. The AVM converts the Web page from the Agent's CPINTERNAL code page to the HTML-CHARSET code page.
