[drakma-devel] Help with utf-8 (SBCL 1.0.5)

Sun May 20 14:33:16 UTC 2007

When I make the request like this:
(drakma:http-request "http://www.w3.org/2001/06/utf-8-test/UTF-8-demo.html")

It results in error:

"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN\"
    \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">
<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">
    <head><title>UTF-8 test file</title></head>
    <body>
    <p>Original by Markus Kuhn, adapted for HTML by Martin Dürst.</p>
<pre>
UTF-8 encoded sample plain-text file

debugger invoked on a SB-INT:STREAM-ENCODING-ERROR in thread #<THREAD
"initial t
hread" {BBDF5A9}>:
  encoding error on stream #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "standard output"
{BBDF859}>
  (:EXTERNAL-FORMAT :ASCII):
    the character with code 8254 cannot be encoded.

Type HELP for debugger help, or (SB-EXT:QUIT) to exit from SBCL.

restarts (invokable by number or by possibly-abbreviated name):
  0: [OUTPUT-NOTHING] Skip output of this character.
  1: [ABORT         ] Exit debugger, returning to top level.

(SB-INT:STREAM-ENCODING-ERROR
 #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "standard output" {BBDF859}>
 8254)
0]

Is it some parameter that I forgot to call http-request with to make it
aware of utf-8 encoding?

Thank you,
Andrew
