Foreign Character Issue

Hi there

I built a website fora relative using MODx and it’s a website for a Choral Society. The website is English, however composer’s names often aren’t.

I’ve tried changing the character set in the configuration page in the past to Western European to allow more characters, and whilst this has solved the problem in the document content, MODx seems to strip them out or replace them qith question marks in the Title and Summary fields.

The page title should be: "Prague Spring: Kodály and Dvořák" with the summary being: "Zoltan Kodály - Missa Brevis Antonin Dvořák - Stabat Mater"

Any ideas on how I can get those two fields to use the character set that the document content does?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It all depends on your database configuration.

Ag thanks for that - I noticed that my database config file had a different connection!

Some further tweaking revealed that I needed to set it to iso-8859-2 for Central European characters to get the ones working that weren’t working.

Thanks again
