Umlauts in custom_strings_inc.php
Posted: 30 Jul 2009, 12:24
I have added a new status to our Mantis 1.1.6 system (carefully following the procedures in the manual) using custom_strings_inc.php
Unfortunately we mainly use German. $s_status_enum_string contains 2 stati that have German umlauts. Those appear in the editor (Wordpad or notepad) but do not appear in the application (instead a question mark is displayed).
I have saved the file as text as well as unicode text. The latter option makes you page really look funy. Seems PHP source cannot be unicode (and as you can tell I'm a PHP illiterate).
What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
