#37102 [Com]: Inconsistent character encoding

ID: 37102 Comment by: ariel at columbia dot edu Reported By: jah@php.net Status: Open Bug Type: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Browser: Firefox 1.5.0.4 (but I have seen this problem for many months) Locale: el_GR.UTF-8 I see the strange behavior of the manual pages for greek; some of the headers display weirdly, as though they live in a database which has some text not properly converted to 2-byte utf-8 characters from old 1-byte iso-8859-7. An example: I see on page http://us2.php.net/manual/el/index.php the header ÅðéìÝëåéá áðü when I should see nicely converted Επιμέλεια από And later in the same page I do see proper text, about 2 lines down where it lists folks who translated the PHP man pages. If needed, I can give a screenshot... Now we'll see whether the comment submissions do well with utf-8 :-) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-04-17 21:57:00] karvjorm at users dot sourceforge dot net With the Finnish documentation there are several hundred encoding problems of that kind. One problem is that both ä and ö are encoded with the same UTF-8 code or whatever and therefore the translation syntax should be checked and bugs should be fixed one by one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-04-17 09:57:52] jah@php.net Description: ------------ On the main page, Zürich and Gießen are encoded in ISO8859-1, Québec in UTF-8 (é as 0xC3A9). Also, at least in the finnish documentation main page, ä is sometimes encoded as 0xC3A4 (correct UTF-8), sometimes as 0xEFBFBD. Swedish and greek documentation also show same kind of problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37102&edit=1
