Accents (Extended ASCII) in Posts

[Oladon]

Just recently, letters with accents (such as ') have begun being converted to just single quotes upon posting. (Posts preview correctly.) Editing the post and replacing the ' with the desired letter "sticks", but this seems like odd (and undesirable) behavior.

Edit: You can see it in this post, actually, as I was hoping — now I'll edit in the actual character I mean; it's í.

Edit again: I haven't tested whether this happens with all extended ASCII.

That is weird. Do you remember when that changed?

[Oladon]

Judging from my alias' posting history, it was sometime between 3:30pm yesterday (your time), and 8:30pm yesterday (your time).

Hmm... ' ë ™ ç

[Kajehase]

Okay, so tremas and cédilles work fine (at least one's that are put in through keyboard), but putting a circumflex over an o didn't.

How about å ä ö and æ ø ð & þ?

[Kajehase]

Interesting, so é also works fine. (Should be noted that Swedish keyboards have a button for inputting accents, no idea if that matters or not.)

'-ú

Hmm... so ú works fine, but the corresponding accented ó doesn't.

á é ' - ú
à è " ò ù
ä ë <br><br>&bull;&nbsp; ö ü
â ê " &trade; û

That should be:

Quote:

á é í ó ú

à è ì ò ù
ä ë ï ö ü
â ê î ô û
ã ñ õ

I think it's the difference between using the quick-post box at the bottom of a thread and the createNewPost page when editing/replying. Nope, reply got corrupted too. It's something different between creating a new post and editing it.

New test with í.

Yay, it worked!

[Christopher Anthony]

Excellent. Glad this is fixed now.

Edit: Confirmed. Thanks!
