Special characters in the article subject

[wildenborch]

Hi Tino,

This code is working for the special characters but the text after and including " is removed.

This is also happening with

Code Select Expand


html_entity_decode($mg['subject'], ENT_QUOTES, ISO-8859-15)

I also tried it with this code

Code Select Expand

un_htmlspecialchars($mg['subject'], ENT_QUOTES)
But this does not solve the " problem.

Thanks, I'll get this fixed for 1.6.1

Tino,

I think the problem was caused by a corrupt file because after I renamed the sources directory and copied the Sources directory from a fresh SMF + Tinyportal 1.60 install the problem is no longer there.

Please ignore the above.
The problem is still there.

Upon some further checking I noticed that on the website with this behaviour, the settings.php file does not have

Code Select Expand

$db_character_set = 'utf8';
All other websites I have do have this code in the settings.php.

After adding this code in the settings.php file the special characters are accepted.

Hopefully this is tomorrow still the same and of not I will striketrough this above sentence as well
