Encoding error while parsing cyrillic text fields
See original GitHub issueSupport plan
Hello! I found an error while parsing form fields for utf-8 cyrillic. The error lies in the incorrect encoding of text fields.
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
Hello World!...Cyrillic encoding error
<br>
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" name="text" value="абвгд кириллица алфавит" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
</html>
app.post("/", function(req, res) {
const form = formidable({ multiples: true });
form.parse(req, (err, fields, files) => {
console.log(fields);
});
res.end();
});
What was the result you got?
Erroneous result of form parsing:
{ text: 'абвгд киÑиллиÑа Ð°Ð»Ñ Ð°Ð²Ð¸Ñ', submit: 'submit' }
What result did you expect?
Expected Result:
{ text: 'абвгд кириллица алфавит', submit: 'submit' }
I created a test to repeat the error on the code sandbox. https://codesandbox.io/s/simple-express-server-rcwvm?file=/src/index.js:834-1248
