The forum works fine with special characters usually:
À à Á á  â Æ æ Ç ç È è É é Ê ê Ë ë Î î Ï ï Ô ô Œ œ Ù ù Û û Ÿ ÿ » «
You've just to type the correct characters or use ALT+keys depending on your operating system. For Windows these ALT keys are listed
here, for example.
P.S. If you copy texts with special characters from other docuмents (PDF etc)
then it can happen that the special characters are lost...
P.P.S. Do the German Umlaute work, too? Ä Ö Ü ä ö ü ß § ... yes, very well. :scratchchin:
It might even be possible to select a different language in your "Control Panel" -- but I'm not sure.
It works well also with Control Panel set to "English". If the poster hits the "preview" button and the special characters are there, it should work well.
Savethemales, do you see correct special characters in the "Edit Post" box?
