Bad category name???

Hi,

I was trying to add my site www.goedkopehost.nl to category "World: Nederlands: Computers: Internet: Commerciële Diensten: Webhosting", when
1. the websoftware didn't accept my submission stating "This site already exists in the Open Directory" (while that isn't the case)
2. as it offered me the possibility to edit the URL, I curiously entered that option, after which
3. it told me "No such category 'World/Nederlands/Computers/Internet/Commerci%eble_Diensten/Webhosting' "

Do you notice what happened to the word "Commerciële"? On dmoz.org it's translated into "Commerci%eble" - which I think is a bug that causes submitting to that category to fail.

Would you be so kind to assist me in submitting my site to that category anyway?

I hope to hear from you soon.

Regards,

Rob

This is a known (and temporary) bug (while the server upgrades are occurring) and happens with characters that have accents. The public side of the ODP is temporarily frozen, and unlinked from the editor side for a week or two, while work is done to the editor side.

There are some work-arounds to this, and there are some similar threads in the forums where you can see how this was done for those other sites, or you could wait a few weeks until the server changeover has been completed.

Great, Giz! I found it and submitted my site. It seems you guys (&amp; gals of course... sorry, ladies <img src="/images/icons/blush.gif" alt="" /> ) have a lot of problems going on with these server updates. I'll cross thumbs for you that it'll soon be over!
