Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Michael Stather (michaelstather) Assigned to: Mark Doliner (thekingant) Summary: UTF-8 in away messages isn´t displayed correctly Initial Comment: When I look at away messages with special german characters inside it, they´re displayed as 2 garbage characters. My system locale is set to UTF-8, so it looks like UTF-8 is displayed where ANSI is assumed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: David Kohen (dudyk) Date: 2007-03-20 12:42 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1335936 Originator: NO I also have this problem with Hebrew away-messages (in either encoding). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tom B. (bigelt) Date: 2005-12-23 20:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1410060 I have the a similar problem with hebrew away messages in ICQ even when I change ICQ encoding to utf-8 (I'm using iso-8859-8) and restart gaim. I'm sure this is utf-8 related because the type of "gibberish" I see is typical to hebrew utf-8 messages encoded incorrectly. looks something like this: ׳™׳© ׳׳™ ׳“׳ ׳›׳×׳•׳ ׳•׳׳ ׳™ ׳׳ ׳׳™׳×׳ ׳—׳׳× ׳׳ ׳™ ׳׳©׳‘׳˜ ׳”׳¢׳•׳ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michael Stather (michaelstather) Date: 2005-12-21 17:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=392303 ISO-8859-1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2005-12-21 16:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 oh. then they aren't necessarily UTF-8 at all. what is your encoding set to in your account options? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michael Stather (michaelstather) Date: 2005-12-21 16:42 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=392303 I don´t talk about my away message, I mean the away messages of other ICQ users. They´re using the regular Windows ICQ client. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2005-12-21 15:26 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 I cannot duplicate this. how did you enter the away message? what protocols are you using? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100235&aid=1386983&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
