utf-8 testing

    As you can all see, it would be a great idea to add proper utf-8 support to Vanilla.

    I don't know what you mean with that. Yes, I'm sure.

    It's a joke ! (se dice así ?) I don't know what it means "ČĆŽĐŠčćžđš". Do you understand ? it is not my intention to bother (No es mi intención molestar)

    Oh, that are just some Croatian characters, it doesn't have any meaning, it's purpose is to test utf-8.

    But, encoding sent-out by the server is ISO-8859-1, and there is no support to utf-8.

    In Spain, there is a Refrain that says "Nunca te acostarás sin saber una cosa más"
    "You never go to bed, without know a new thing" ;)

    I hate these encoding issues. I'm open to suggestions from anyone that has one. Maybe a function for encoding/decoding from form submit, to saving to database, to displaying on screen.

    Keeping in mind that html entered in discussion titles should be encoded.
  • minimlminiml New
    Well, I didn't post any HTML in title, that are just Croatian characters.

    The solution is right in your hands. Just make sure that both input and output is set in utf-8 and you're done. Also, that character encoding is properly set by server:

    `AddType text/html;charset=utf-8 .php`

    or this, so that everything is in utf-8:

    `AddDefaultCharset utf-8`

    But I'm not sure is the last example correct, I know it goes something like that...
  • MarkMark Vanilla Staff
    Oh, I see what you're saying.
    I was hoping to do something within php itself so that someone who wants to use vanilla, but has no control over their server settings, can get the proper encoding.

    Well of course, even better then!

    Use this for that:

    <?php
    header('content-type:text/html;charset=utf-8');
    ?>

    IIRC.

    Yes, maybe, because before encoding was iso. I will open new thread with the same characters to properly test it.
