Unicode problem...

[reczey]

I have chosen hungarian-utf8 as the langauage of my forum, and everything looked fine until a bought Gallery Pro. My posts were looking good, found Hungarian buttons, etc. Although I live abroad and I use an English Windows with its pre-defined Hungarian keyboard set, I could post in Hungarian all right.

Today I translated the Gallery, Modifications, and Who*.php langauage files into Hungarian, edited the Theme index page, and since then a funny error comes:

1. If I choose Unicode Encoding in my browser (IE7), all posts look fine, i.e. Hungarian, but the Gallery translation looks scambled.
2. If I Chose Western or Central European Encoding, the Gallery translations look fine, but all my posts are scambled *in a different way).

As if I "was not able to write utf8" on my machine in the php code (used Dreamweaver), as the coding of the original php files and the trasnlated php files have become different somehow, although on my local machine they look alike. Only on the web they are scambled in different ways.

Any clues, please, what to do now?

I need to convert the translated php files to utf-8. This is a free tool, unlike TextPipe pro, which can also do the job, but would cost $500. Other translators, using other languages, also may make use of this nice, free, utf-8 conversion utility.

Not really sure have not done much if  any unicode work. I would look into maybe converting the table's to utf8 and see if that improves it you  probably would need to reenter the text after you convert the table to have it take in affect.

Hi,

The above linked tool worked perfectly. I needed to covert the php code with it, and now it is fine.

Does Gallery Pro support Unicode comments and descriptions? I am using Lite version, which does not support Unicode. I may consider buying Gallery Pro if it does.

Thanks,

It does not support unicode out of the box.

For the lite you can try converting the database tables for the gallery to unicode and see if that helps.
