Reo

It seems that we have reached the the end of the line here, quite a cumbersome journey, we are well in to the second page now. The line in the Swedish language php file that misbehaves in the mail client is: $contact19 = 'Fråga Om Evenemang'; I figured that if I change the word Fråga to something similar like Fundering, the problem never occurs, and no one will be the wiser. I Think that will have to do it for now. Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge it is Western Europe (ISO).

I have sent you an email, and this is what I noticed while doing that. http://buick.net23.net/calendar/mystery.png

Yes, that took care of the problem. Thanks. Still there is one thing that puzzles me. In this case the sender of the mail (visitor at the page) has an Hotmail account and everything seemes fine. The administrator uses the applicaton Windows Live Mail that connects to a server at Bahnhof, for receiving the messages sent. However, the thing is that the Subject in the mail received excludes the letter åäö. Everyting else inside, when the e-mail is opened is OK. My question is, could this be something at Bahnhof that causes this to happen or is it something in the Maian Event. http://buick.net23.net/calendar/bahnhof.png

I recently discovered another issue. There is an oportunity for visitors to e-mail a question to an e-mail adress that is setup within the login admin interface of the Event Calendar. One mail goes to the admin and one to the sender, saying an answer to your question will be sent as soon as possible. Here we have the same story again, but this time the letters in the e-mails that are received appear as square cubes. http://buick.net23.net/calendar/mail.png

Yes, now everthing seems to work as intended. I kept the @ symbol because I figured it had to be there for some reason (even if it was unknown at the time). Well, thank you for your time helping me out. I might post again, if I get in trouble.

How I created the database and all tables. Well, first of all I created an emty database, by using the instructions that was at hand in the webshell. Then I used the autoloader that came with the Event Calender. That's about it. Just out of curiosity, what difference does it make if the Collation strings in index.php begins with @mysql...... instead of mysql_query?

If I have added a charset to the php connection string, such as charset utf-8. Thats the only thing I did, I changed in the swedish language php file charset to utf-8 .And it gave me some signs at the page that I not am able to reprint. Before I changed it, it said iso-8859-1 and that gave me ????? on the page. If I am using in my php code a header function somewhere. I have not really opened up the other php pages to find out what's in there. I downloaded the hole set for free from http://www.maianevents.com the language file was a separate download from the same site.

I understand. It has to be in the table, me_comments at the tab, browse. http://buick.net23.net/calendar/me_comments_browse.jpg I have to add, that the first comment was written without åäö. (on the page). The 2nd and 3rd was written exactly the same way as Testkommentar2åäöÅÄÖ Testkommentar3åäöÅÄÖ The difference is that in one case I used the charset iso-8859-1 in the Swedish language php file in the other I used utf-8. Neither of them seemed to solve anything.

I am not sure what column you are refering to. But while browsing the me_settings table there in the browse tab it states under language, swedish.php http://buick.net23.net/calendar/me_settings_browse.jpg While in the structure tab it states in the language row english.php as default. http://buick.net23.net/calendar/me_settings_structure.jpg

This is the second time I visit phpMyAdmin so I am not familiar with the proceedings. I took some snapshots so it is possible to see how things are setup. http://buick.net23.net/calendar/interface.jpg At the moment I could not find the default database character set, but there was a window for the collation.

All right. So now I have changed the Swedish language php file from: $charset = 'iso-8859-1'; to $charset = 'utf-8';

MySQL server version - Client API version 5.1.59 Description of what it is currently doing that is not to my liking. I have installad an Event Calendar that seems to work properly as long as the English language is used. This calendar is supposed to work with the Swedish language as well, so I have uploaded the Swedish language php file in language directory. This was an option from the developer. So the problem now is that every letter å, ä, and ö is not showing up properly when adding an event, or when visitors leave comments on events. I have worked around the problem by using HTML for those letters while adding an event. But that is not possible when visitors leave comments. Those 3 letters turns up as questionmarks on the page. This is the adress to how it appears: http://buick.net23.net/calendar/events/index.php?cmd=event&event=3

Yes indeed. Register_globals ey. Why didn't I think of that? Anyway, now it seems to work perfectly. I may post this trick to the developers as well. Thank You for your help.

Hi, I have installed a postcard service that is called freeze greetings. It is all up an running but the problem is that the e-mails sent out do not contain a proper link back, so therefor it is not possible to view the postcard. The adress to the postcard is partly missing. You can try it out for yourself at this adress: http://moonrock.net76.net/greetings
