Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Hello,
I'm using InstantMantis-1.0.8., Currently, I'm testing an Arabic system and need to write some bugs' notes in Arabic.
While writting such notes, the charcters appears correctly in Arabic, but after saving the note, mantis shows it as numbers like :&1575;&1605;&1575;&1606;&1610.

Any suggestions for such issue?

thx in advance,
Amani

Hello,

The problem is solved now
The issue is related to the page encoding and it sufficed to change the file
InstantMantis-1.0.8\root\mantis\lang\strings_english.txt
by replacing
$s_charset = "windows-1252";
with:
$s_charset = "UTF-8";


I've found this along with how to migrate from mysql 4.0 to 5.0 in the following url:
