Problem with special characters (UTF8)

Post by ITsupporten »

Hi there
I seem to have a problem on one of our test sites, but only in category view (http://www.alphatest.dk/frv/index.php/b ... leder.html). It shows the danish letters wrong. But when I enter the caegory the text is shown correct with the Danish letters ÆØÅ.
I expect I need to convert a file to UTF format, but I am unsure which? And if it is in fact in Phoca Gallery module the problem is?
I have tried to convert the language files and the Phoca php files, but without luck. The DB is set for UTF8.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance and brgds.

Hi, try to search this forum for "danish characters". It seems like there is some problem with danish as it has problem in different components. Phoca Extensions are written in UTF-8 and use Joomla! database layer. Nothing is changed there so no idea where can be the problem ...

Try to check forum.joomla.org too. Try to change database collation too, see:
