Hi, I'm using Joomla 1.5.2 and ChronoForms 2.5 RC3.1.

When i try to add "On submit code before sending email" -code which contains characters like "ä", "ö", "é" it cuts the code at the first occurance of one of those letters when saving the form.

Let's say i want to put this in the code field (with php tags):

echo "Ääääääää";

When I save the form and go back to see the code it will look like this:

echo "

I tried to search if someone has had the same problem but with no luck. If there's a thread already please send a URL to it🙂

Hi OCS,

Please use HTML entities to add these characters to your html.

You could also try[code]echo htmlentities['string');[/code]see the php manual for more info.

That doesn't work. If i put:

echo htmlentities('Äääääää');

and save it, it looks like this:

echo htmlentities('

I'm making a custom mailing script and I use these letters in strings also. If i want to make a string:

$foo = "Message äääää";

it doesn't save anything but:

$foo = "Message

On another project i have Joomla 1.5.0 and ChronoForms 2.5 RC2 installed and this works fine.

Hi OCS,

I think this is something server related, it worth a try if you don't have alot of work done yet to install RC2 on this new server and see if it works well and if so then we can find a fix for this issue which will then be CF related!

Just let me know

Cheers

I installed RC2.1 version and it works fine.

I'm running this system on 2 different systems (localhost & remote server):

Apache 2.2.6 + PHP 5.2.5 + MySQL 5.0.51

IIS 6.0 + PHP 4.4.1 + MySQL 4.1.16

Problem existed in both systems with RC3.1 version. I can use RC2.1 now so there's no panic.

Thank you for the update, then this is an issue, could you please send me an email through the contact us form at the top of the site so we can run some test at your server someway, I cant regenerate the issue here as all is fine, I will just give you some files to overwrite and test!

Thanks again!

I'll try to make a fresh install as soon as possible when I got the time and notify you after it's done.
