accents

Hello,

I need CKEditor to preserve accents such as á and é. Upon doing some googling, it would seem that changing CKEDITOR.config.entities in _source/entities/plugin.js to false should do the trick:

CKEDITOR.config.entities = false;

Alack and alas, the accented characters are still being converted. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks so much,

Eric

Very helpful! I was under the misguided impression that I needed to change it in the plugin; once I made the change in the config.js file it worked perfectly.

1- the connection file to the db has the following: $conn->query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");

2- In the config.js of the ckeditor I have added the following lines

config.entities = false;
config.entities_greek = false;
config.entities_latin = false;
config.entities_processNumerical = false;
    // Define changes to default configuration here. For example:
     config.language = 'el';
    // config.uiColor = '#AADC6E';
};

3- my webpages are set to: content="text/html;charset=utf-8"

4- db colation: utf8_unicode_ci / type MyIsam / ghe sofa

I've been searching around but no luck. I'd appreciate any help

First, I'm no expert on this, but I *think* that you also have to set your charset in your database connection; I use PDO and "charset=utf8" as one of my config options (this is in addition to your Set Names).

Hopefully this helps!
