<p>hi all,</p><p>im looking for ui help, especially a problem with german special chars like äöü. the default market ui got the featue "saved searches" in this pulldown we can add own search settings. in this case the german special characters are no problem, they will be displayed without any problems. if i get the market ui from profit and use the expanded search options, all special chars will be displayed as a square. the xml source for the saved searches from soe and the advanced searches from profit(gm9) are the same xml structure. so the content is correct, only the display from searches ending in a white square. gm9 said in the profitui reborn forum</p><blockquote>The problem is that the game internally stores the characters in a non-UTF format, likely äöü is represented internally as %C3%A4%C3%B6%C3%B. The problem is that we have no function available to convert UTF strings into the internal format - at least noone has found such a function yet to the best of my knowledge - and we cannot modify individual characters in strings to perform a manual conversion. So while we can properly encode äöü in a file, we cannot use these values in any way other than just to display them without breaking the encoding.</blockquote>someone got a workaround? hints? tips? or maybe someone from the soe customer care can reproduce this problem and maybe they try to fix this as a localization problem? not only in germany, all non us/uk speaking countries got this problem for there own language :/ maybe Tim Slayer read this posting <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
