Summary

Because CharsetConverterContrib was released, i thought that Utf8 would be the right way to go.

However the following happens:

  • Any word that starts uppercase and contains an umlaut renders to a "garbage" wikiword. So it is not a wikiword but the engine tries to render it as such.
  • If the same word starts lowercase, it renders correctly.
  • Editing using the tml editor shows the correct word.

Example

nachfolgende Bl��cke auswirken
nachfolgende blöcke auswirken

Live using this Web (seems to work here)

nachfolgende blöcke auswirken

nachfolgende Blöcke auswirken.

It also happens quite often, that when saving using the Wysiwyg/Tml editor, text get "garbage" characters. I will open a seperate task for this, but thought it might be worth mentioning.

Edit: Task opened: Item12946

Example:

%STARTSECTION{"searchbytopic"}%
<div class="jqDataTablesContainer {'bFilter':true, 'bPaginate':true, 'bInfo':true }">
%SEARCH{
  "1"
  type="query"
  topic="*"
  header="| *Name* | *Date* | *Author* |"
  format="| $topic | $date | $wikiname |"
  nonoise="on"
}%
</div>

%ENDSECTION{"searchbytopic"}%

Jast, Crawford, can either of you confirm the WikiWord rendering part of this. The Edit issues are fixed. Is this related to use of Locales?

Looks OK to me.
