Title: transaction-comments on blockchain.info Post by: AvL42 on September 30, 2012, 02:42:33 PM I've been playing around a bit with comments on transactions on blockchain.info.
I've also skimmed the thread about blockchain.info, but due to my newbie-state cannot post there, yet, so I'm asking here: What character encoding is used to store these comments? I've been trying a few non-ascii characters (äöüßµ αβγμ ...), and most, but not all of them turned into questionmarks. Now I'd like to know, if these question-marks are merely a bug with displaying the characters on the tx-pages, or if the question- marks are already stored in the DB(*). *: from skimming the blockchain-thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40264.0 I gathered, that these comments are (at least currently) *not* stored within the actual blockchain. Title: Re: transaction-comments on blockchain.info Post by: CIYAM on September 30, 2012, 02:59:04 PM Just for clarification (as I had asked for an ability to provide comments on blockchain.info a long time ago) exactly how can you enter a comment for a tx (or is this just for a tx in your own wallet)?
Title: Re: transaction-comments on blockchain.info Post by: AvL42 on September 30, 2012, 03:06:51 PM Just for clarification (as I had asked for an ability to provide comments on blockchain.info a long time ago) exactly how can you enter a comment for a tx (or is this just for a tx in your own wallet)? You can specify a comment when you create the transaction (in "Custom" mode). I'm not aware of any way to add a comment afterwards (short of cracking the blockchain-website just to insert the comments into their DB. ;-) Title: Re: transaction-comments on blockchain.info Post by: CIYAM on September 30, 2012, 03:09:01 PM Okay - thanks for the clarification (still hoping that feature will be added provided you can prove you own at least one of the inputs in the tx).
