Hello,
i had the same problem.
But when you ad meta tags to the header.php whith the charset iso-8859-1 it works.
On my site it works now without any problems.
Cheers, Peter
change it but it's not the sollution.

Import from the xml file is not the problem because the € sign is imported ok.
the problem i think is from search.php to product.php product page is not reading it correct.

Hi Henk,
Can you send me the feed URL (you can reply to your forum registration email) and I will try it on my test server, for example:
http://www.example.com/feeds/merchant.xml
(where example.com is your Price Tapestry site)
Thanks,
David.
maybee this one lost your attention. :)
Thx Henk
Hello Henk I have found the problem.
It is because, when using mod_rewrite; the product name is not urlencoded(), and this is why the € character is becoming corrupted.
To fix it, find on Line 143 of search.php this code:
$searchresults["products"][$k]["productHREF"] = "product/".tapestry_hyphenate($product["name"]).".html";Change it to this:
$searchresults["products"][$k]["productHREF"] =
"product/".urlencode(tapestry_hyphenate($product["name"])).".html";That will encode the € sign and then the product will be found.
Hope this helps!
David.
Hi Henk,
I have noticed that there are some other character encoding issue with other merchants on that site (in the product descriptions).
I see that you are using "iso-8859-1", but it looks like some feeds are in UTF-8 format. I would try this site in "utf-8" (and re-import), but there still may be a problem with the Euro symbol.
In which case, can you let me know the URL to the feed on your server and I will try it on my test server...
Thanks,
David.
