adding to cataloges problem

saszownik · 2007-01-23 19:35:00

Hi,
I’m new here but I used TXP to some projects and all is fine but I’ve big problem. When I try add my page to any cataloge for example(qlWeb – very popular in my country) I have problem with polish signs.

My test page is : http://www.promocje-bukmacherskie.info

My header in default page looks like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
<html xmlns=“http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” xml:lang=“pl” lang=“pl”>
<head> <meta http-equiv=“Content-Type” content=“text/html; charset=iso-8859-2” />

For examples catalogue http://katalog.987.pl when I try add to any categories system copy to textfield and textarea keywords, tilte and description (it is cool to fast adding site). Unfortunatelly my sites in TXP I must allways correct words with polish signs :(

In config.php I have charset latin2 not utf8 but I was trying another too. think more people from poland had this problem on startup and throw away TXP because cataloges are very important to promotion site :( Default in my database (nazwa.pl – my hosting) is utf-8

Please any help,

regards,
saszownik

Your description of the problem is unclear. Can you provide step-by-step directions for demonstrating the problem please. Also, show us what you’re expecting to see, and what Textpattern actually does.

I expect iso 8859-2 in my output html. But I think it isn’t iso-8859-2 only still utf-8.
on this pics I draw this element red color-> http://www.promocje-bukmacherskie.info/utf.jpg

maybe problem is here? character_set_system: utf8

In config.php I have $txpcfg[‘dbcharset’] = ‘latin2’;

Textpattern uses UTF-8 exclusively. Don’t change the dbcharset setting or the XHTML character set or you’ll create problems. Declare the charset as “utf-8” in your XHTML template, and you’ll be able to use Polish characters anywhere in your content, including category and article titles.

Polish signs in all modern browser show perfectly because it is utf-8, but I needed in html output iso-8859-2 because more catalogues in my country simply not supported utf8. I know it is bug catalogues but I try find good method in textpattern.

Ah, I see.

Changing the database character set will almost certainly cause unpredictable and subtle problems. Your best bet is to keep the content stored in UTF-8, and look at ways of converting it to iso-8859-2 when the HTML is sent to the browser. You could try experimenting with the mb_output_handler function.

thanks for Your try help, but I had some troubles with thiis function.

Method for new site was…
in files publish.php and index.php I change lines from

header(“Content-type: text/html; charset=*UTF-8*”);

on

header(“Content-type: text/html; charset=*iso-8859-2*”);

Now my site is really in 859-2 encoding I think
and then evrything looks great I hope this version TXP will be compatible with plugins etc.
