I have tested whole spanish language plugins I have found out for community builder most of them work but not has expected around the vowels accent (á, é, í, ó, ú)
I have joomla 1.5.7, community builder 1.2RC3, phpBB3.0.2, rokbridge environment. My site is set to spanish and my backend to english.
Joomla 1.5.x work with default utf-8 coding.
Joomla 1.0.1x works with default iso-8859-1 coding.
I will post my results:
1.- When in joomla 1.5.7, I have installed a spanish plugin (iso-8859-1) it uploaded well. I have seen the source code and the accent is shown, but how the page is coded in utf-8, the accent aren´t shown.
2.- When in joomla 1.5.7, I have installed a spanish plugin (utf-8) it uploaded well. When I test the frontend, a message [you can are not allowed to see this page appear]
I have expanded the zip, and the spanish.php file has
defined( '_VALID_MOS' ) or die( 'Acceso directo a este lugar no está permitido' );
the spanish.xml file appear to be fine
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<cbinstall version="4.5.3" type="plugin" group="language">
<name>spanish</name>
I am sure it is a codification issue because If I set the iso-8859-1 codification in my browser (IE6, Firefox 3.02) it works ok with the iso-8859-1 plugins.
I haven't gotten to have a utf-8 spanish plugin show any other thing than [you have not access to see this page]
Does anybody has some clue or has had this problem before?
Thanks in advance.
