Accents and special character using hwriter (on Windows)

Hello,

I have a problem with special characters such as "?" or "?" when using
hwriter. This only happens when I use windows, it works fine on mac. If I
do: 

print(datosdv)
"Ciencias Sociales y Jur?dicas n:74 | 33.94%"

but: 

hwrite(datosdv, p, br=TRUE)
"Ciencias Sociales y Jur?dicas n:74 | 33.94%"

The bad sign is in the code, is not a problem of the encoding of the html
page, that is in UTF-8.

Does anybody have found this? Many thanks in advance.
Ram?n

Hello,

I tried your code in R 2.15 with Ubuntu 12.04.? It looks okay to me. 

datosdv<-"Ciencias Sociales y Jur?dicas n:74 | 33.94%" 
?print(datosdv)
#[1] "Ciencias Sociales y Jur?dicas n:74 | 33.94%"
?library(hwriter)
?p=openPage('test.html')
?hwrite(datosdv,p,br=TRUE)

#test.html output
Ciencias Sociales y Jur?dicas n:74 | 33.94%

Probably, it must be specific with the windows.? Are you using windows7?


A.K.
