edit-on Pro Technical FAQ

It is possible that the applet requests a configuration file (config.xml or uiconfig.xml) multiple times. The reason for this behavior is a bad character encoding of the configuration files.

The configuration files included within the installation/samples package are UTF-8 encoded. edit-on Pro will compare the character encoding of these files with their XML headers' encoding information, which is by default:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

In case the XML files' encoding isn't UTF-8 the applet will request the according file for a second time as it will re-check the character encoding.

You can avoid multiple loading of the configuration files by editing and saving them as UTF-8 documents in common text / XML editors (e.g. Windows Notepad, jEdit, etc.).
