We are new to RE and will export our RE data to our website on a regular basis.  RE does not suppot UTF-8 encoding.  It was suggested to me to use Tidy to convert our data for the website.  Other than the dropdown box in the export section, I am told there are no encoding options.  I am thinking RE users probably export data to their websites on a regular basis and wondering if any of you have any other approaches/ideas/best practices.  Thanks so much.  



(importing the data from RE is not a problem, RE can import UTF-8)

    At a previous org I was at, we were using RE, and they built a new website in iModules.  The webmaster and myselft built a datamap for every field that was to be exported and imported from RE to the site and vice versa.  We had fields where we were asking alums to fill in info that was missing and wanted to import it back into RE.  It was a looooong map.  Don't know if this helps you at all.  It included the RE code for each field (numbered if there were multiples of the same field) and then the corresponding code for the backend of the website.
