    Default Small encoding problem with French accents

    Hello,

    I run my website in English and French.

    On the French index page, the title is messed up because of the accents.

    All other French content (product descriptions, names etc) are OK.

    When changing the meta_tags.php encoding, I can or see the title the way it should be (and the rest is messed up) or just the content and not the title.


    Any idea what's wrong?

    Thanks!!

    The generated html that arrives in the browser says it is 8859 encoded.

    The page title text comes out of the database and is utf-8 (change the browser expectations, FFox View-Character encoding to utf8 to show it correctly).

    However your product descriptions are 8859 as these go wrong when you change to utf-8.

    So the data in your database is in different character sets.

    Have you just upgraded to Zen Cart 1.5?

    Hello,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I'm with 1.3.9h.

    If I change my database to 8859, it should solve the problem?
