Form results export charset problem
Permalink
Hi, the accents in the forms and on the site are working just fine (in utf-8), everything is shown correctly (like á, í, ő, ű) - but when exporting the submissions to excel, the characters are just scrambled... Any hint where to start tracking down this problem?
Thanks a lot,
Tamas

wooops. we'll put this in our fixit list.
I think I've already fixed that on one site..
goto /concrete/controllers/dashboard/form_results.php
in the function excel, there's this stmt
surround it with utf8_decode and it should work
goto /concrete/controllers/dashboard/form_results.php
in the function excel, there's this stmt
echo "\t\t\t".$answer....."\r\n";
surround it with utf8_decode and it should work
echo "\t\t\t".utf8_decode($answer....)."\r\n";
Thanks! I made the temp fix, now everything is fine - expect, that our famous "ő" and "ű" characters are resulting a "?" in the export... But I think I can live with this, I would just be quite curious, why is that :)
best for you guys, you are doing great,

all the fancy characters are working fine for me!
your page gets printed using utf-8, doens't it? meta tag - content type set to utf-8 right?

...yes, utf-8 is everywhere. Seems this is a punishment from the gods for using such characters in one's language :) Thanks for your support again, I will make some further research later and post the results.

Unless you have some objections we'll add this to our code.
