Incorrect character translation on download


Recommended Posts

I have a problem with all accented characters not downloading correctly in the structure.rdf.u8 dump.

 

Below you will see examples (if the chars display incorrectly correctly <img src="/images/icons/tongue.gif" alt="" />) on words like "Français" it shows as "Français".

 

<narrow r:resource="Top/World/Español"/>

<narrow r:resource="Top/World/Français"/>

<narrow r:resource="Top/World/Românã"/>

<narrow r:resource="Top/World/Català"/>

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Try setting encoding to UTF-8 in your browser; then you'll see that the characters are correct. But if you view the text in ISO-8859-1 encoding (or any other non Unicode UTF-8 encoding), you'll see unreadable characters.

 

As specified in the description of the RDF dumps, the data is in Unicode UTF-8 format. If you use tools which are not Unicode-aware for handling the data, it will look strange.
