Re: Changing page enocding when exporting event to Calender

Hi Eran,

Note that these are changes to version 5.0.1, which is vailable from www.dnnevents.net as Release Candidate 2, so is not a production release yet.

All changes are in Eventcontroller.vb

In ProcessVCalRequest the encoding is changed to UTF8

' Stream The vCalendar
Dim oStream As HttpResponse
oStream = HttpContext.Current.Response
oStream.ContentEncoding = Encoding.UTF8
oStream.ContentType = "text/Calendar"
oStream.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "filename=" & HttpUtility.UrlEncode(oEvent.EventName) & ".ics")
oStream.Write(vCalendar.ToString)

In CreateRecurvEvent and CreatevEvent description processing has some changes

Dim sDescription As String = "DESCRIPTION:"
If oEvent.MapURL <> "" Then
sDescription = sDescription & oEvent.MapURL & "\n\n"
End If
Dim descriptionLength As Integer = 1950
sDescription = sDescription & HtmlUtils.Shorten(HtmlUtils.StripTags(System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(oEvent.EventDesc), False), descriptionLength, "...").Replace(Environment.NewLine, "\n").Replace(" ", " ") & "\n" & Environment.NewLine

Cheers
Roger
