Here's a string:

"Hello\r\nHow are you?"

I saved this string into my DB two ways:
1) by copying this exact string into the console then saving;
2) by typing it (with an actual newline rather than \r\n) into the object's form and submitting it.

Both results return the above string on the console. Both are encoded in UTF-8.

However, only the first responds to .ascii_only? with true.

  1. Why is this the case? How can I save the above string as ascii_only with method #1?
  2. How can I convert method #1's string to ascii_only??
