Title: Strange text in upper left corner, only in Firefox
Post by: JTynes on April 21, 2005, 12:00:47 pm
I'm not sure why but Firefox and Opera dispaly " ï"¿ " in the upper left corner of all Coppermine pages. This doesn't happen with IE. What is going on and how can I eliminate it? You can ho here: http://www.neckofwoods.com/coppermine/ to compare/contrast.

Thanks!

This is caused by the utf-8 language coding.

You can either switch from the utf-8 version of the language file, or get the latest utf-8 version from the cvs here (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/coppermine/stable/lang/), where all the utf-8 files have been fixed.

Well, instead of updating the language packs, I just went ahead and installed the new 1.3.3 update and that's working just fine on all the main pages.

But ... on the javascript pop-up for the full-size image that little bit of garbage code still exists. Is there any solution that will get rid of it as well. If it's utf-8 related and I've updated the language packs, why would this one particular page still generate this little garbage text?

Thanks!

Well, it seems the english.utf-8.php file has somehow been affected with these characters again.

I have updated the cvs file, but that may take a few hours to catch up.  For the moment, you can use the file version 1.14 attached below.

Perfect. That did the trick dead on, now it displays perfectly in Opera and Firefox.

Thanks!!    :D
