French accent (and others) àéèêïëô ...

[nadelo]

Hello

it seems that GetSimple1.5 does not like french accent in title and topic pages

When I put one of them, i get an error in the admin area but I can still use it but in front i got a page with parse erreor like that

Warning: simplexml_load_string() [function.simplexml-load-string]: Entity: line 2: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding ! Bytes: 0xE0 0x20 0x53 0x69 in

any idea where i can change that ?

thanks

nadelo, what character are you putting in?

[nadelo]

it seems that é doesn't make problem (title or topic, but i must remplace it by é to be correct if not it do é instead of

the à doesn't make problem in topic , i just have to convert it also

But à in title put a trouble, i can confirm it

thank you for your answer

I am looking for the ALT codes for these French accent characters, have any that I can use?

@nadelo - have you figured it out yet or still working on it?

[nadelo]

hello

to be honest, i have no time at the moment to work on it

but if i find a soluce, i will share it of course, may be something on a .htaccess

This is fixed in the upcoming 1.6 release. Along with i18n, it also offers support for the whole range of french and other lang charsets.

I actually encode files containing those chars in UTF-8 and add

Code:

AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

string in .htaccess

[ccagle8]

good idea... have you seen any problems with other things when doing this?

no, never...always use this method for cyrillic and latin chars
