Problems with accented characters

Added by Fabio Yuiti Goto about 1 year ago

Hi! Just discovered and started playing with elrte and elfinder.

I'm thinking of using elrte+elfinder to replace tinyMCE in my projects.

But I've stumbled upon one problem: Whenever I put a file with an accented character in its name, the File Browser crashes. Like, the toolbar doesn't load, and elRTE doesn't show any files. Also, when I upload a file with an accented char through elRTE, the file gets uploaded, but the filename "breaks".

An example would be:
- I want to upload the file "ninféias.jpg";
- The file is uploaded and renamed on the server as "ninféias.jpg", this way the file is shown in elFinder and the correct name is shown;
- But if I put the file "ninféias.jpg" or rename it like this, toolbar doesn't load and elFinder gets broken;

Since I've got a lot of files in my uploaded folder, I need to get a workaround for this.

Is there a way to do it?

Thanks!

What charset are you using? elFinder supports only UTF-8, can you test it on demo?

Have the same problem here.

Uploading the file "ninféias.jpg" via elrte it will shown fine, but looking on the server in the filesystem a file called "ninféias.jpg" is created.

But if I place a file "ninféias.jpg" directly on the server in the directory, I get the same results like Fabio in elrte, no folders and files and no toolbar is shown.

Looks like your server is using wrong charset, file names stored on the server must be in UTF-8 encoding. Usually such when you are running windows xp.
