Problem with Greek pack

[hrinfo]

Hi everyone,

I have the cart running and everything so far works fine in demo. Now I have started adding categories using the Greek language. Nevertheless some items are accepted in Greek but then others are rejected.

You can see it here: http://www.cubebookstores.gr/shop/in...index&cPath=69

There you will see that it has a subcategory called "Λογοτ&#" instead of "Λογοτεχνία"

Version 1.3.8

Probably it is something silly but any idea/help/hint will be appreciated.

Hi,

I have installed the greek pack but when I try to enter categories some letters are not accepted. Any ideas?

For example a category displays as Λογοτ&# instead of Λογοτεχνία . This is strange as I can enter the same phrase in the description without any problem. You can see it here:

I am using v1.3.8

Any ideas will be appreciated.

Tassos:

I am constantly checking for new versions so this is it. I am going to attempt to get this right. All previous contributions did not work.

Try

iso-8859-7

You are using

iso-8859-1

Sorry for bumping the thread, but I have the very same problem.

While on other (information) pages Greek letters with accent are accepted normaly, there is problem with categories.

I use charset=iso-8859-7 - no result...

Can someone help about this?

I open the database, and the length of the categories_name in the table categories_description vas (varchar 32 or 35) ...I cant recall now.


I make it varchar (255) and it work like a charm.

That is because Greek data for each letter in the database look like: &%ERED and all this for one letter only, so you can imagine.
