Bug #69266 [Asn->Fbk]: character encoding issues on people.php.net

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69266&edit=1 ID: 69266 Updated by: salathe@php.net Reported by: cmb@php.net Summary: character encoding issues on people.php.net -Status: Assigned +Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: Website problem Operating System: n/a PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: salathe Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Since I'm an "admin" now, I guess I can look at it! The names with the replacement character have been fixed on master. It may take up to a week for the user list cache on people.php.net to expire, before seeing those changes on that site. For the Content-Type being only "text/html", do you want to see that fixed too or just let browsers do their thing? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-06-10 18:44:02] cmb@php.net Peter, can you please have a look at this issue? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-03-20 09:11:37] salathe@php.net The issue is most probably the value stored in the database (on master.php.net). Peter's user page [1] on master, for example, shows the same problem. If that is the case, we should get an "admin" [2] or someone with access to the box [3] to fix up the data.

See, for instance, <https://people.php.net/?page=16>, where the name of "Johannes Schlüter" is UTF-8 encoded, while the name of "Peter Hüwe" is not (the ü is substituted by a REPLACEMENT CHARACTER). Furthermore the Content-Type of the document is specified as "text/html" only (without a charset), so contemporary browsers are supposed to assume UTF-8, while older browsers might assume another character encoding. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69266&edit=1
