Use of local letters results in blank webpage.

Post by Tupsy »

Hi.
I just changed my weather PC.
I copied all the data from the old pc so alle old weather data is visible on the new pc. :-)
But..
On the old PC i translated the standard weather pages into Danish.
That worked fine. but not on the new pc.. :-(

When I put in one of our local letters (æ, ø and å) in forexsample indexT.htm the output file ends up empty. :(
Why is that? Is it the software that needs some setup or is it in the computer setup?
And where?
Hope someone can help me.

Regards
Torben

Maybe æ for æ will do the trick?

GREAT... :)
That did the trick...

But I still wonder what changed from the old PC to the new.

Do you have UTF8 processing checked?

No, I thought checking it may fix your problem if it wasn't already checked. And you are saving the template file as UTF8 without BOM?

HTML should use the entity characters for extended characters though.
