portuguese character coding problem in email messages and error messages

[narizvermelho]

Hello


I am configuring a apple zen template. In the language.php (portuguese), in portugues.php file I have the charset to iso-8859-1. Although the accentuated characters are fine in the page, the error messages that appear in popup windows and the emails that zen cart sends have strange characters on accents, ç, etc...

Can anyone help me with this?

You can see an example on
http://maufeitio.pt/OnlineStore/inde...create_account and select portuguese language

Try to create an account without introducing nothing and see the error messages in the popup window. These error messages are defined in the portugues.php file, the same place where other words are introduced in the main page that work just fine!

Thank you

Ok, I found the problem.

If someone else is having the same problem:

The problem was that for translation purposes I edited every file in the language file with an edit tool and did not choose iso-8859-1 do edit the file!

So when editing each file make sure you have the iso-8859-1 in editing option or in save as.
