Changing the DER Encoding Order

You can also change the DER-encoding order of a DirectoryString. (The reason for
allowing this to be configurable is that different clients support different encodings
for historical reasons.)
The syntax for changing the DER-encoding order of a DirectoryString is as follows:
X500Name.dirStringEncodingOrder=<encoding_list_separated_by_commas>
Possible encoding values are as follows:
• Printable
• IA5String
• UniversalString
• BMPString
• UTF8String
For example,

distinguishedName.value += 'OU=' +
escapeDNComponent(OU.value);
}
if (DC.value != '') {
if (doubleQuotes(DC.value) == true) {
alert('Double quotes are not allowed in DC
DC.value = '';
DC.focus();
return;
}
if (distinguishedName.value != '')
distinguishedName.value += ', ';
distinguishedName.value += 'DC=' +
escapeDNComponent(DC.value);
}
X500Name.dirEncodingOrder=Printable,BMPString
