I saw the messages about character conversion...
I don't know if someone is seeing the same problem as me. I don't mind the editor converting character, but I do mind when character anywhere else in the page are converted.
I mean: I have a form containing french accented characters and those characters are mixed up even though it's not in the editor text field...
What's wrong?
I know I could convert all those characters into é and so on, but for some it will be harder since text comes from a database... I would rather not wrap all this info to convert those characters....
Anyone can help?

RE: Characters converted...
I use a form where I can update articles from a SQL server. When text are filled into the form from SQL, the norwegian characters are scrambled (and elsewhere on the page) but they are correct in SQL. In the FCKeditor they are also correct.
I have tried this:
charset=iso-8859-1: characters are scrambled
charset=utf-8: characters are disappearing!
The FCKeditor are great, and I would like to use it, and even donate, but the way it is now, its almost useless. Unless the problem can be fixed...
RE: Characters converted...
There is a very strange looking set of characters at the beginning of several fck pages. "". I did a web search on this and found nothing - or rather everything (9,300,000,000 results but no mention of this strange $string on any of them!)
Then I changed it somehow maybe with Server.URLEncode or something, I can't remember now but it revealed "%EF%BB%BF". I searched again and found stuff like this...
"A Byte Order Mark (BOM) is the character at code point U+FEFF ("zero-width no-break space"), when that character is used to denote the endianness of a string of UCS/Unicode characters encoded in UTF-16 or UTF-32 and/or as a marker to indicate that text is encoded in UTF-8, UTF-16 or UTF-32."
I figured this must be something to do with the code page so I deleted it from fckeditor.asp and low and behold all my french accents etc are fine!
Re: Characters converted...
I have the same problem with SQL and norwegian caracters æ - ø - å
Is there any known solution to fix this?

Re: Characters converted...
I've got the same problem. My site is using language charset: iso-8859-1
Outside of the editor, all special character for Norwegian language (æøå ) is wrong. Once the editor is closed, the page shows the special characters correctly..
I have tried to replace all FCKeditor's charsets from utf-8 to iso-8859-1 and have tried to modify the fckconfig.js: FCKConfig.IncludeLatinEntities and FCKConfig.IncludeGreekEntities with true and false.
I'm stuck and need some help please...
Best Regards
Tor
Re: Characters converted...
Can't find any solution, either on the net or in the code...
This must be a language conflict between UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1. Older versions of fckeditor did'ent had this problem...
Inside the fckeditor, everything seems ok, and the saved text is also correct, but the special characters (ÆØÅ) outside the fckeditor are changing to something else (eg. Ø = ø).
Please help me out..
Re: Characters converted...
I have changed the instance method of fckeditor from fckeditor.asp to fckeditor.js...
And just suddenly is everything in order...
This indicate that the problem with special contry characters (eg. ÆØÅ) outside the editor field has occured with new versions of fckeditor.asp
