hello all,
I have a strange problem just in IE7. German umlauts (öäü) do not appear correctly. This problem appears only with my custom silverstripe input fields for page content. Normal page content is shown correctly... there umlauts appear in the database as html-code like ä [=ä]
Can I somehow tell my input fields to convert umlauts to html-coded characters similar to the standard content text input seems to do it?
And one additional question: why is the silverstripe database encoded latin1-swedisch? I guess utf8 could solve the umlauts problems. I also tried this to change the collation manually in the database to utf8, but the Strings somehow arrive wrong in the database.
Thanks for your help,
florian
