Problem with chars like ÅÄÖÜ when using AJAX / #3965

I have converted my database from Latin_swedish_ci to UTF8_swedish_ci and tested to set confChange('DB_USE_UTF8_ENCODING',false);
...but I still get åäöü

I can see this works here ...grml

MySQL 5.0.24-max-log
Collation of tables: latin1_swedish_ci
Type: MyISAM

confChange('DB_USE_UTF8_ENCODING',false);

I am not really sure, why the utf8 encoding makes problems. Probably we need some additional Header option for the request.... really weird.


when checking the answer of the ajaxRequest Firebux tells me following headers.

especially not the Content-Type field. Maybe I have to adjust this settings for the ajax request, but I am not sure, how to do this. Do you need access to this server for further tests?

...same problem with MSIE7.

Hi ganesh. Did the html_headers solve the problem?

I had the same problem, but item_ajax.inc.php rev277 solved it.

So we only have to take care of the localized date functions for the stable release...
