Re: Charset change
I recently change my char set to UFT8 as I needed to allow special foreign characters for addresses. The issues I have were related to Quotes, non breaking spaces and currency symbols. you get a black diamond with a question mark in the centre for all the characters that are not recognised. This was my fault for using MS Word to create the descriptions and easy populate to update stock. on the site the I replaced the following
Replace ’ with '
Replace ‘ with '
Replace ” with "
Replace “ with "
Replace – with -
Replace … with ...
Replace £ with £
Replace © with ©
Replace ™ with ™
Replace ® with ®
the hardest one was the non breaking space which I had to change in word the reload all the product details.
Don't know it that is helpful. Hopefully so!
Ps Don't forget you also need to change your PHP files.
