BBC articles use ISO-8859-1 in display, ignoring language codepage. Also special characters are not displayed, instead the decimal entities numbers are displayed, as stored in the database.

Another problem with BBC articles is that BBC code is not parsed in Print article.

The above are tested in an ISO installation, not tested with UTF-8.

Been playing with the Swedish language now the past hours and i can confirm this in Swedish, but not in English for some reason. Tested with both iso and utf8 and they are the same.

Thank you for testing in UTF-8. It would require one more installation.

It's not that simple, it requires database conversion to UTF-8, then entities conversion, backup is a must befor proceeding. Going back to latin-1 collation is (almost) impossible. I prefer separate installations for testing. I also must find time to test a complete UTF-8 conversion with TP installed.

- Print article rendered BBC articles wrong.
- BBC articles did not convert entities.

Fixed for TP v1.0 beta 4.
