Hi!

I found your pretty script GuestBook and I installed it on my site.

I have problem with some french characters ( à è ...). they are transformed in &#232 or &#224 .

Excuse me for my bad english

Thank you for help me.

Hello Diana,

I can't check it as you have not given the link to your guestbook, but i guess the following topic handles the problem you are having.
viewtopic.php?p=3691#3691
So try searching the forum first.

But because the line number in the answer is specific for version 1.41 I will copy the answer for version 1.43

I think this is related to the charset that is used by the page.
GBook uses windows-1250
For pages that use special charachters use iso-8859-1 or utf-8.

Try the following:

Find this line in the gbook.php files (line 871 in version 1.43) and change it to this Greetings,
Henrie

Hi! Henrie,

I am sorry, I had sought on the forum with request "french characters" but I had not found this.

It would be necessary to add that in the assistance of the file to avoid new messages on this subject.

Thank you very much for your assistance.

I put your link in my web site " <a href="http://www.phpjunkyard.com"><img src="http://www.phpjunkyard.com/ban/88x31.gif" height="31" width="88" border="0" alt="Free PHP scripts for download"></a>"

My Web page is in construction on my personal server…

Still, thank you very much

Diana
