Language issue with French in Joomla 1.5 - 2008/05/13 00:16 I have issues with displaying French characters, both in the backend and in the frontend.

On the frontend the special characters are partly replaced by question marks.

In the backend when I add a file that starts with for example L'augmentation I off course add the name without the backslash but after saving it, the component adds it itself. Any attempt to remove it seems futile.

Can someone help with these issues?

I run Joomla 1.5.3 French frontend and English backend and the latest version of this module.

mysql Database Version: 4.1.22
PHP Version: 5.2.5
Joomla! Version: Joomla! 1.5.3
Remository Version: 3.44.3j
mod_remositorymulti version: 3.43J

Re:Language issue with French in Joomla 1.5 - 2008/05/18 14:21 The problem causing the question marks is probably that the language file needs to be converted to UTF-8. There are suggestions for achieving this in this post.

I'd do more conversions myself, except that 1. It takes time and 2. I don't know in all cases what character set the current language file uses.

The escaped quote could be a Remository bug - I will look at that.

Re:Language issue with French in Joomla 1.5 - 2008/05/20 00:39 Okay, I have the French files converted now and they seem to work well. The issue with the ' adding a backslash remains. As soon as I add a quote somewhere it does that.

Re:Language issue with French in Joomla 1.5 - 2008/06/16 14:36 Could you say which route you are using for adding files to the Remository repository?

I've tested the addition of files with a title that includes a single quote via both the user side and the admin side (add a local file in the manage files option) with both Joomla 1.5.x and Joomla 1.0.x. There is no backslash showing in these tests. (I'd guess the result would be the same with Mambo).

If you can think of anything that might make the situation different for you, it would be helpful
