    Corrupted characters are displayed on the AskAleph webpage

    Description:
    If you click the ALEPH icon next to the Purchase Order No. in Acquisition record in Verde, corrupted characters on the webpage with the details of the order in ALEPH are displayed. This happens only when bib data is catalogued in ALEPH in language other than ENG.
    The problem is when the html page in Verde is loaded, character set is not defined correctly on the page.

    Scenario for example:

    Retrieve package CEP_1123334183645_612379
    Open ACQ record and run AskAleph – click ALEPH icon.
    Bib data is cataloged in Greek, instead weird characters are displayed.

    This is what is cataloged in aleph
