Two Questions

megabrain · 2005-06-03 16:47:02

Hi All
Fist I would like to say: Thank you! This is a really great app.

And now 2 questions :

1. Is it planned in the future version of GLPI to add database driven "Contact Person" managment ? It could be very helpful for reporting of all equipment for exactly choosed person.

2. Does anyone know there is a way to display properly ISO-8859-2 character set ? I can add data with this set, in database all is ok, but on screen no.

Thanks for any informations

hello

Answer 1 : yes it's planned but when we don't know.

Answer 2 : I think you could modify this file : glpi/glpi/common/functions.php

Lines : 453, 624.734

Replace
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 \" >";

By

echo "<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=iso-8859-2 \" >";

We are very proud to know that glpi was used in Poland

I am afraid it doesn't help at all Of course default coding on the page changed to iso-88859-2, data in database is in iso-8859-2, but while display it is not. Strange is while I entering data, they are on my native lang. After "update" button data are written to database witch correct character set. But in the moment i click "update" and looko on data on web page, they are on iso-8895-1.

Not sure but I think it comes from htmlentities functions that doesn"t support iso-8859-2 charset...
Each data entered to the db pass thru an htmlentities filter, and other string redimension scripts and this for security issues.

I see a solution that consist to force UTF-8 usage...
But there is no more solution (if what i sayed is right) so wait and see...

(see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlentities.php for more informations about charset support).

maybe using UTF8 will solved the problem.

megabrain · 2005-06-06 23:36:46

Yeah, i've just read about htmlentities, and I think that is the problem. I'll try UTF-8
Anyway, thanks for your time

Hi,

Megabrain - can you tell me what you did to got properly our polish encoding?!
You could help me translating into our polish mother tongue - recently I don't have time to translate but with little help we could make it done.
