Problem with special characters on page: search.php

[Actarus]

Hi all,

I just install the new version of OsClass and in the search.php file a noticed a problem here: <h1><?php echo search_title(); ?></h1> on line 68.

I have created a catégory named "Hôtel" (in french) and there is a problem with the "ô" same for an other category with an "é".

Thank you for your help!

Hi Actarus,

I can not reproduce the problem : http://i.imgur.com/3YvCL10.png In my setup it shows correctly.

Did you modify the theme? In that case, please check that the encoding of the file is set to UTF-8

Hi Esteban,

I did not change anything 
I create the DB using utf8_general_ci and the characters in DB are rights and everywhere in the sites too but it's only wrong in that title...

Thank you for your help.

Make sure all the files in your theme (and Osclass as well) are encoded in utf8. This happens to me when I save a file in another format (like Latin or something).

I tried to install OsClass on my web server and the problem is not here. So the problem is on local install with Wamp...

Please, check the encoding of the files (with your text editor > save as ) and the encoding of the page being served (In chrome click on the settings menu > Tools > Encoding)

All in UTF-8. I'll try to update my Wamp, I think it will solve the problem...

I updated my Wamp from 2.1 to the latest and it works fine now.

Thank you all for your help

Insert the file .htaccess

Code: [Select]

AddDefaultCharset utf-8

<IfModule mod_charset.c>
CharsetDIsable on
CharsetRecodeMultipartForms Off
</IfModule>

php_value mbstring.func_overload 2
php_value mbstring.language Russian
php_value mbstring.http_input "UTF-8,KOI8-R,CP1251"
php_value mbstring.detect_order "UTF-8,KOI8-R,CP1251"

I'm looking at this problem and is only on display the title of the search.php page.

At the mostall on page is correctly with accents!

When you create a new category with accented characters, they are correct in DB. Also on the homepage are correct but, in preview from search.php, on this quoted line, are not.

I had launched tidy in all categories directly in the DB but now I will go back.

Everything is correct except

Code: [Select]

<php echo search_title ();?>
why?

I guarantee that's not a problem page, because everything else has accents in search.php.

What is not accented, is just the search_title().

I did so:

I created a category with any accents:

"Está caçado o pão"

So in the abovementioned line I added the letters with accents + title:

Code: [Select]

<h1><?php echo _e('â ã á ção é ---- '.search_title()); ?></h1>
The search results on page was this:

â ã á ção é ---- Est�� ca��ado o p��o

Happens both local server and web server.

The strange thing is that the same function in all other places, such as: Breadcrumb and Home webpage are correct!

This is very annoying!

THE SOLUTION

The problem lies in using: strtolower() which is based on unicode.

to solve this, you must use: mb_strtolower()

Then, check the file oc-includes/osclass/functions.php

Find the line:

Code: [Select]

$result .= strtolower($cat['s_name']) . ' ';
and replace with:

Code: [Select]

$result .= mb_strtolower($cat['s_name'], 'UTF-8') . ' ';
Do this for all within the function.php file!

Including for the function: osc_search_category_id()

Code: [Select]

$text .= strtolower($cat['s_name']) . ' ';
to:

Code: [Select]

$text .= mb_strtolower($cat['s_name'], 'UTF-8') . ' ';
and where you find more convinient.

  Go beyond!

In css try and change the font for h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 from osclass to helvetica or another font that has diacritics
