russian chars dosnt show

[maxus]

I mean it is bag.
I make update from 1.3. to 1.3.5 and cant write russian in categories description.

For exclude my foult I make new installation and set 3 languages.
Set russian language in admin zone - edit CHARSET
When Im use charset like iso-8859-1 system show me only first 3 letters of russian word. It is standart situation - I see it in 1.2.7 cose I need to use right (russian) charset.

When Im set russian charset windows-1251 and put Categories description in russian - system dosnt put any letters to descriptions. Just see empty description field.

HTML cource show <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251">

If I edit categorie name directly in database - categorie name look like "Категори тесС"

Server OS: FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p3
Database: MySQL 5.0.22

Yes. It's a bug. Your bug. I use 1.3.5 with russian chars without ANY problem.

When you "edit categorie name directly in database" you use utf-8.
