Change charset appearing in meta tag

Hi Eirik

1) in i18.ini.append.php, although you should be careful as this might influence other charsets as well (e.g database connection)

2) no idea (I never use the admin interface for creating or changing templates so I frankly don't even know what you mean...)

Hi guys,

Thanks for your input. Here's a quick summary of what I've done so far with regards to charset and the database:

1. Exported the content from the 3.5.0 database.
2. Created a new database for the 3.8.4 installation with the utf-8 charset.
3. Imported the contents of the 3.5.0 database.
4. Run the various sql updates and associated scripts.
5. Run the SQL commands posted at the last entry in this post:

6. Set Charset in [DatabaseSettings] to utf-8.

So far, I get attributes of the xml datatype displayed correctly. However, attributes built upon the textline datatype for instance, display special (Norwegian) characters incorrectly.

I also tried changing to utf-8 in i18n.ini, but that just made the xml blocks messy as well.

Please advice.

Thanks in advance !

Sincerely,
