| Problem with Finnish character display |
|
I had this problem before. It was solved; it has occurred again. I have checked that the solution that was implemented the last time has not changed. I don't really know the source of the problem. The 2 characters ("Ä" and "Ö") don't display properly: \
\
The solution found before is\
\
- I added an .htaccess file to the /public_html, which contains:\
* AddLanguage fi .fi\
* AddCharset ISO-8859-1 .iso8859-1" \
\
- I also added the code page below to the html\
\
|
Code: HTML
\
meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="fi">\
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">\
|
\
\
Is there any Scandivanian users (Denmark, Sweden,Finland and Norway) to tell me how they set the character sets?\
\
This problem is very annoying. Please help. Thanks in advance. |

You set your meta Content-Type to charset=windows-1252, this is the default english, you should set it to the Finnish langage char set ISO 8859-1, so modify this met tag line to be: meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso8859-1 |

I have changed it as you suggest, but the problem persists.\
See the site: http://www.huutotalo.com\
|
Code: HTML
\
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="fi">\
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">\

Some hints:\
\
I found out that when I replace the General.pm language file with a backup, everything is fine. But when I add a new language variable to Finnish language file, improper display of Finnish characters appears. |

| Then the problem with your editor, you should download/upload the language files in ASCII mode, also you should edit the files with text editor if you edit it direct on your computer. |
