Non ASCII character become question mark ??

helloworld

There is perl codes in my presentaion template file:

my $title = iwpt_dcr_value('dcr.contents.title');
my $cmd = qq(iwextattr -s TeamSite/Metadata/Title="$title" $dcrName);
qx($cmd);

The code is doing the simple action that capture the dcr field value and set to the extend attribute field. The $title includes some non ASCII character (e.g. %u2013 En Dash).
After finish that, I view the metadata in the Teamsite UI, the non ASCII character is outputed as "??".
What is going on? I know the dcr and TeamSite UI are all the utf-8 encoding. It is the perl code or the clt not support utf-8?
Thanks!

Hi,
Check the option -u in iwextattr
