Hi,

we think it's a charset problem so we need to know which browser on which OS with which language in phpMyFAQ do you use.

Hi,

can I test it on your FAQ?

the language is italian

Hi,
you can try one of these two solutions below:
a. comment out this line in your Apache configuration file:

Code: Select all

grep AddDefaultCharset /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
#    AddDefaultCharset utf-8

b. modify the charset value for the italian language from "iso-8859-15" to "utf-8". Find below the key for the charset:

Code: Select all

grep Charset [PATH_TO_PMFINSTALL]/lang/language_it.php
$PMF_LANG["metaCharset"] = "iso-8859-15";

I regularly use PMF both in Italian and English and I'd suggest you to apply (a.)

[zilog80]

YESS!

im change:

httpd.conf

Code: Select all

AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

AND..

language_it.php

Code: Select all

$PMF_LANG["metaCharset"] = "UTF-8";

and NOW WORKING!!
