Hello.

I have a problem when displaying RSS feeds into my blocks. It won't display danish letters ÆØÅ.

Anyone have a solution to this problem?

Thanks.

Can you supply some more information, please? What's the URL of the feed in question? Is it from a Geeklog site or some other source?

bye, Dirk

Hmm. The feed validator warns about possible bad characters in the feed but I can't see anything obviously wrong with them. They don't display properly for me either, though.

Need to dig deeper ...

bye, Dirk

I'm looking into it, I think I've found where the encoding is lost, just trying to figure out how to un-loose it without loosing anything else...

I can give you a hack that will work until 1.5 and a final release is available...

Find COM_rdfImport in lib-common.php:

Text Formatted Code

            if ($charset == 'utf-8') {
                $title = $feed->articles[$i]['title'];
            } else {
                $title = utf8_decode($feed->articles[$i]['title']);
            }
 


Replace with:

Text Formatted Code

            $title = $feed->articles[$i]['title'];
 


Of course this will break support for UTF-8 Feeds, but, since this is what's broken support for your feed, that may be an acceptable trade off for you.
