UTF-8 Encoding
« on: December 30, 2006, 09:57:20 AM »
Hey all

I installed the bridge for SMF and in the installation from the SMF i marked the checkbox UTF-8. Now, my whole Joomla can't show up the special signs in german (ä,ü,ö) anymore  Shocked

Any suggestions?

Best regards from Switzerland  Grin

Hey Livebox

Thank you for your swift reply. Hum? After i "unpatched" the Joomla-Core Files in the Backend, it works fine. If I patch the whole stuff again, it doesn't work anymore.

Any idea?

Hey Livebox

Thank you for your reply. I found the bug now. Each time I patch the Joomla-Core Files in the Backend, all special letters in german (ä,ö,ü) messed up. When I unpatch it again, everything works fine.

Is there any way to patch the core-files manually? What changes are made in the index.php from Joomla when I patch it?

Would be great if you could help me  Grin

I had the same thing It had to do something with Coalitions of my SQL database. covertert everything to UTF and it works for me.

Think that you have your SMF in utf and the Joomla in latin. There are sevarall posible sollutions posted @ this board.

For me this was the sollution

In my case, I had everything in utf and had this strange characters.
After digging, I found it ! It was my templates fault :

the meta http-equiv Contenet-Type was sending an
echo _ISO
which, in my case, was writing
charset=iso-8859-1

I just hard coded
UTF-8
(taken from the header of SMF called as standalone.

And evrything is OK  Smiley

Thank you so much for your great work. Sure I'll donate.

in the template header section.

Still had somme ? on buttons, like "Se d?connecter" instead of "Se déconnecter".

Replacing all é by é (and so on) in the french.php Joomla language file brought everything right.

and, to be complete, I had to change, at the beginning of frontend.php

Code:
$mosmsg = stripslashes( strval( mosGetParam( $_REQUEST, 'mosmsg', '' ) ) );
to

Code:
$mosmsg = stripslashes( strval( htmlentities( mosGetParam( $_REQUEST, 'mosmsg', '' ) ) ) ); /* htmlentities */

I have similar problems with this integration module.

I'm 100% sure that:
* database and all tables are in UTF-8
* joomla installation is working in UTF-8 mode
* smf installation is working in UTF-8 mode
(where double checked)

But when I put Joomla-SMF module it will break UTF-8.

PS. My template is not giving bag headers.
