Thanks. I think I have mentioned this page somewhere in the comments, but I am not sure, and I cannot check the site fully at the moment.

Oops. Spoke Too soon. I had to follow quite a few links to finally get to it, so here it is one resource for others:

Can you share where you found a QR code reference which tells you what data needs to be embedded in the QR code image? I’d like to implement a form like you have, but use the PHP QR Code library. I don’t know how to formulate the string that needs to be embedded in the bar code.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Please send me the address of that generator, or a working QR Code via e-mail and I’ll check what I’m doing different. I have been following standards from the start, but everyone can make a mistake or two

You can find my e-mail address in my Contact page.

Yes. The working code is different than yours (both versions – with and without escape special chars). Maybe different implementation of meCard?

Have you tried “Escape Special Characters” -> “No” option on my generator?

Hi,
I have noticed some incopatibilities between similar code types and subtypes – namely, QR with meCard embedded. Reader I am using (i-nigma) properly recognizes meCard created by other encoder but fails to read yours. I am assuming this is not a parsing issue but rather different metadata naming convention (even though it should be standardized)?

Please see earlier comments. There are examples for that situation that we discussed.

Well, that’s because QuickMark does not follow escaping standards for meCard. As you can see “:” is a separator for different fields, it should be escaped for consistency. While QuickMark seems to have solved this problem, they actually did not, and their reader can get confused when you have to enter more complex URLs into the URL field other than a simple http://webaddress.com.

I will add a “Don’t escape special characters” checkbox to the generator for testing those reader programs that don’t want to follow the standards, but when you select that, while your reader can read the code successfully, other programs may not be able to, because the generated QR Code will not be standards compliant.
