Summary	0005401: Cyrillic characters encoding problem
Description	Used cyrillic characters in bug description/notes are displayed as Сд... Injecting $p_string = eregi_replace( "&(\d*)", "&#\1", $p_string ); into 'string_restore_valid_html_tags' workarounds the problem. However email notifications are still ugly. Besides in emails #nnn is replaced with bug links so display becomes even worse: &http://localhost/mantis/view.php?id=1057;&http://localhost/mantis/view.php?id=1076;...
Additional Information	I believe it's not only for cyrillic chars but for all symbols outside default Mantis codepage.
Tags	No tags attached.

sabio 2005-04-04 11:53 reporter ~0009707	Hmm.. Mantis corrupted the samples I provided. :( Will try to fool him with the following ones: &# 1057;&# 1076;... &http: //localhost/mantis/view.php?id=1057;&http: //localhost/mantis/view.php?id=1076;... (all I did is just inserted some spaces)

salmira 2005-11-24 05:55 reporter ~0011649	The issue can be solved by changing the charset in the default english.txt charset = 'windows-1251'; Unfortunatelly, this solution works only when a language with fixed charset is chosen.
