Hi,

I have a (flat) zip-file containing htmls, pngs and jpgs that I want to serve as a website.

I started out with plain psgi, where it was really simple.

Now I want to move to Dancer2 and I seem to have a problem with encodings.

The html-files in the zip are utf-8 and I am using Archive::Zip to read it, so in the psgi-version I did something like 

return [200, [ "Content-Type" => "text/html; charset=utf-8"], [ $membe
+r->contents ] ];

[download]
And that worked.

Now I try to do the same thing in Dancer2 like this: 

use strict;
use Dancer2;
use Archive::Zip;

any '/**' => \&handler;

sub handler {
    my($context)=@_;

    my $zip = Archive::Zip->new;
    $zip->read("eco.zip") == Archive::Zip::AZ_OK or die "cannot read z
+ip\n";

    my $path = $context->request->path;
    $path =~ s|^/||;
    my $member = $zip->memberNamed($path) or die "no such member: $pat
+h\n";

    my $type;
    $type = "text/html; charset=utf-8" if $path =~ /\.html$/;
    $type = "image/jpg" if $path =~ /\.jpg$/;
    $type = "image/png" if $path =~ /\.png$/;
    die "unhandled file: $path\n" unless $type;

    response_header "Content-Type" => $type;
    return $member->contents;
};

start;

[download]
And while it somewhat works (the header seeems to be sent just fine) accented characters look wrong in the browser.

Does anyone have an idea what this could be?

Also I am t a total newbie to Dancer, so I would greatly appreciate any better ways to do this in Dancer as I suppose this is not a very idiomatic way to do this.

Many thanks!
