French accented caracters problem

Hello,

FCKeditor is a very good editor. Great thanks to all development team who contributed to this project.

By the way, I have a question concerning special caracters. When, I input french accented letters such as:

(à) , (â) , (é) , (è) , (ê) , (ë) , (û) , (ù) , (ü) , (ô) , (î) , (ï) , ( ç) ,

I get the following output after submiting the editor page (using test.php and testsubmit.php):

(à) , â (â) , é (é) , è (è) , ê (ê) , ë (ë) , û (û) , ù (ù) , ü (ü) , ô (ô) , î (î) , ï (ï) , ç ( ç) ,

It seems that german people encounter this problem also (we have common accented letters in both languages). The adapted charset for us (western europe) is iso8859-1. I couldn't find an option/parameter to change somewhere in js subdirectory to deal with special chars.

Did someone face this problem, have an idea or a possible work-around ?

Thanks all for your help,

Cyrille Letellier (France)

RE: French accented caracters problem

I've the same problem, but it happens only when I'm submitting my form, the switch between code and html view changes nothing.

Does anyone have an idea ?

RE: French accented caracters problem

The solution for accented characters is to place the following code in fckeditor.js at line 76:

<!-- Traitement des accents -->
text = text.replace(//g, "&eacute;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&egrave;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&ecirc;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&ugrave;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&uacute;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&ucirc;")
text = text.replace(//g, "&agrave;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&acirc;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&aacute;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&ocirc;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&oacute;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&icirc;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&iacute;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&ccedil;");
text = text.replace(//g, "&ntilde;");
<!-- Fin de Traitement des accents -->

This code covers spanish and french accents (and all the other languages that uses the same accents!).

RE: French accented caracters problem

if you want to INPUT those accented chars, you must see your OS. It is more an OS problem than a HTML/FCKeditor one!

RE: French accented caracters problem

just to let you know that i filed a support question to Fred on the issue. The text is :

"
When using your software with international characters,
we meet some issues: the transformation of those
characters to HTML code like -->&eacute; BEFORE
comitting to database.

I found two places where i could change your code in
order to do such a thing:
in fckeditor.js l.77
in fck_actions.js l.281

I add there the following line for each of the accented
characters:

text = text.replace(//g, "&eacute;") ;

now when i insert such a code in fckeditor.js, no prob

when i do such a thing in fck_actions.js, FCK get stalled,
doesn't work anymore
for info, your function would look like this:
function HTMLEncode(text)
{
text = text.replace(/&/g, "&") ;
text = text.replace(/"/g, """) ;
text = text.replace(/</g, "<") ;
text = text.replace(/>/g, ">") ;
text = text.replace(/'/g, "&#146;") ;
text = text.replace(//g, "&eacute;") ;
return text ;
}

the error i get is "/" expected in l.282!!!!!!
could you explain or resolve it ?

RE: French accented caracters problem

Hi,
I have a similar problem.

My application involves traslation of texts in different languages.For this purpose,a popup is opened from the main window which opens the FCKeditor.The value entered in the editor is then sent back to the parent window textfield.However when I use danish or any other characters, they are replaced with their representation.For eg. 'æ' is replaced with '&aelig'.When the editor is now opened again,this value '&aelig' is again displayed as 'Atilde'.
How can I retain the original characters???

Pls help....Would really appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks..
