Thanks,
I'll test with 4.5 as soon as it becomes stable and downloadable from

Hello Heiko,
We think we have this fixed in our 4.5 release, as an examination of the
http response header on an ncWMS getCapabilities document shows:
Content-Type: application/xml;charset=UTF-8

Hi,
we just recognized a problem with the character encoding in the ncWMS
getCapabilities document.
All GetCapablities documents from thredds return a HTTP response
header with
Content-Type: text/xml;charset=ISO-8859-1
while document itself states
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
When adding any non-ASCII characters to the files, e.g. via ncml
adding an abstract attribute (UTF-8) with 'sjøiskonsentrasjon' =
sea-ice concentration, we get some problems.
On
http://thredds-staging.met.no/thredds/wms/geirs_norsk_test/ice/conc_nh_agg?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities
sjøiskonsentrasjon is translated to ISO-8859-1 (as stated in
charset=, but not as the encoding)
On the corresponding opendap-page:
http://thredds-staging.met.no/thredds/dodsC/geirs_norsk_test/ice/conc_nh_agg.html
, the content-type is
Content-Type: text/html
without any charset mentioned. The data is send as UTF-8 - (the
default is not clear to me). (It's neither clear how attribute
character-data translates to netcdf and where to put the _Encoding
attribute. But that's a different story...)
The corresponding catalog.xml page is completely correct:
http://thredds-staging.met.no/thredds/test.xml
with
Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
The corresponding catalog.html page is clearly UTF-8, too.
Best regards,
Heiko
