    Default UTF-8 Issues

    I've suffered several issues concerning encoding and charset, and still, problems persist:
    http://www.דיל.net/
    in UTF-8 i see the products clearly but the menu is gibbrish, in Hebrew-Windows (1255) i see the menu clearly but the products are gibbrish...

    what files to i have to convert still?
    i converted the /includes/languages dir to UTF-8, what else am i missing(what files contain the menu)?

    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Default Re: UTF-8 Issues

    And what Character Encoding does your database use? By default it's normally iso-8859-1 (Latin 1), which does not include support for non-European language characters. So no support for Hebrew, Cyrillic, Arabic etc. For that you need utf8.
