Uff, look at the http://dan.solutions.lv/forum
(if it doesn't give you Exceptions)

It works with cyrillcs. However, I've done some modifications. And something's still done wrong. But it works, at last!

OKay, so I've modified templates (added accept-charset= to forms plus fixed some attribs around for xml compliance (not all, just what I've seen in the <form> tag)) and the source (req.setCharacterEncoding(encoding);). Not sure how to make a patch, but download template and src dirs tar.bz'ipped here:

http://dan.solutions.lv/download/jForum_mod/

I'm not sure if the <form> modifications were strictly necessary, but they won't hurt (I think, he-he-he).

That's not the end of charset problems, anyway. More on this later. I'm going to sleep now.

Niiice

You did that using rc3 or rc 3.1? on 3.1 I let the admin to configure the charset via admin panel.

I'll take a look in your modified files late.

3.1.

And there are problems left, but mostly it's working. After you look into the modified source, I'll explain what else is wrong. Stay tuned

OK, patches are here:

http://dan.solutions.lv/jforum/patches/

From my readme: :twisted: 8)

Patches charsets_templates-over_rc31.patch and charsets_src-over_rc31.patch
make charset setting in JForum RC3.1 work.

Apply charsets_src-over_rc31.patch with

patch -p2 < charsets_src-over_rc31.patch

from the root source directory (src/).

Apply charsets_templates-over_rc31.patch with

patch -p2 < charsets_templates-over_rc31.patch

from the root templates directory (templates/).

Known issues:

  • Windows-xxx charset's won't work, because Java has different names for them. We need to do some mapping (I think java.nio package has something to do with that).
  • For best results, mysql should use the same charset as forum, or else MySQL Connector/J driver will replace some chars with "?"s.

    Ups, I've just realised it was better to open this topic in the "Contributions" cathegory. Will you please move it, Rafael?
