Can you tell me which language set the characters belong to? This is turning out to be a bit difficult to track down. What I need to do is convert the special chars into a Unicode string, then convert them back without any data loss. Perhaps a combo of utf8 and base64 encoding might help, but I'm not sure what to test against. Knowing the language and chars that you are entering would help.


Thanks.

Hi Brian,

Yes I've tested again and now with Firefox, but the special chars are still not printed correctly.
I guess those chars are send using UTF-8 encoding.

Octavian, regarding the issue that you mentioned earlier about the chat app not displaying special characters correctly, could you test this when you have a chance to see if the chat form is now accepting special characters? This should be fixed. I changed the save method from urlencode/urldecode to base64_encode/base64_decode, which should correct the problem. I think...
