I figured out my problem, it was a topic specific to asp.net.
Web file. Is my site config tag globalization defines request and response encoding ISO-8859-1 for all pages:
When I change is utf-8, junk characters disappear in the drop-down list:
However, since the DB ISO-8559 our is-1, we do not write UTF-8 encoded data in the database, where you can set the response encoding for a page to utf-8 by changing the page header on MyPage .aspx:
<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile?="~/Views/Shared/MasterPage.Master" ResponseEncoding="utf-8" %>
You see the page updated http://i.imgur.com/fqyXk.jpghere:
I hope this helps someone. Thank you.
