Messaging: Problems with 1.6 and special chars

Messaging: Problems with 1.6 and special chars

အကြောင်းပြန်မှု အရေအတွက်: 7

Hello!

We have just installed Moodle 1.6 and when we use any special char from Spanish such á é or ñ the message is truncated exactly where the first special char appears.

I have been searching the forum but can't seem to find the answer. Anyway I have added it to the bug tracker (6128)

(probably solution) Re: Problems with 1.6 and special chars

by Eduardo Hernandez -

I was looking in the source code, and in file send.php and in line 39 says

$message  = optional_param('message', '', PARAM_CLEANHTML);

I changed it to

$message  = optional_param('message', '', PARAM_RAW);

and now it works....

I don't know if this is a final solution but it works

Hello,

it seems that this bug is still (sometimes ?) here ၀မ်းနည်း
... the code is still the same...

In fact, i have 2 Moodle (1.6.2) installed on 2 different servers, one with no problem and one with this problem pensif

I've seen that for the one with problem, i have in the apache server configuration (httpd.conf) this line :
AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-1

If i comment it, the problem disapear...

But i think that Moodle should'nt rely on apache configuration !

Hi all,
messaging works fine with Moodle 1.6.2+ I've just installed.

But... I ran the Moodle database Migration script, and the special chars problem appears!

Best regards.

Hi again,
I'm not sure that's the right solution, but it works!

File message/send.php, lines 64 & 65:
    /// Save it to the database...
        $messageid = message_post_message($USER, $user, addslashes(utf8_encode($message)), $format, 'direct');

File message/refresh.php, line 64:
      $printmessage = str_replace("\n", ' ', $printmessage);
      $printmessage = utf8_decode($printmessage);

Regards.

It does not work for me in 1.7.1+. I have updated http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-6128
but wasn't able to re-open the ticket. Also, when trying to paste the first screenschot via the java applet, it somehow broke the image. It should still be ckear, however, which problem we observe.

I have posted the fix at the thread
"Bug and fix in 1.7.1 (probably also older versions) for displaying Non-ASCII chars"
