Hey Blindmime I am no longer with JBServers and thank you for confirming you had the issue also. I was feeling alone lol. Brian's fix resolved this issue and I am not seeing the error Douglas is seeing.

Jamroom 5 Beta Launch 50% off promo

Announcements

Hey PCH - One thing to think about in the new pricing structure is that you are no longer buying licenses for artist usage. It used to be something like under 5 was free, then the tiers started from 5+ to unlimited. Then there was the pricing for the paypack, power pack and I think a few others not to mention the marketplace with individual modules.

I agree 100%. From the research I did it all pointed to entity encoding and my site was set to utf8 in the meta.tpl and db should be utf8_general_ci from what I remember. So there should be no conflicts there. But it definitely was effecting a lot on my site.

Thanks for not giving up on this as user error

Joomla had the issue as well related to PHP 5.4.

Summary
get_html_translation_table requires encoding value for PHP 5.4
Details
The get_html_translation_table function used by the JFilterInput::_decode method requires setting the encoding value to "ISO-8859-1" as this value is set to "UTF-8" by default in PHP 5.4 - http://php.net/manual/en/function.get-html-translation-table.php

ok this is bothering the hell out out of me. I am using utf-8. If I go to any page I can usually find a string of odd chars. If I edit a blog that does not display the char, in edit mode it is there.

Suggestions?

Hey guys I was woeking with Brian on this and he could not duplicate it. I can reproduce it on Win 7 Chrome and Safari and Mac Chrome - http://test.jamroom.net/dazed/blog

Can you guys try these steps:

1. Create a new blog with some basic text (no cut/paste)
2. submit
3. edit the blog - click tab and go to the next line (you may or may not see the char yet)
4. add some more text on the next line
5. submit
6. edit again

Result - Usually by the third time I see the weird char appear.

oh please lol. You have a million things going on and you are supposed to be on vacation. In the end, it is only software. No one lost a life. I just was going back and forth on the z-index for my menu and getting frustrated lol.

Appreciate everyone's help.
