Description

I can't use German umlauts in the forums. If I type "ü" and try to safe a post, I get the following error:

I found a similar ticket in trac, which was fixed by this changeset. But unfortunately I couldn't fix the problem for the forum.

  • status changed from new to assigned.

It's working for me. What is your configuration in trac.ini's [trac] section? I have "default_charset = iso-8859-15" and my system uses utf-8 as default encoding.

  • priority changed from normal to high.
  • severity changed from normal to major.

I get the same error when I post a message that contains special chars, like "è à ò". I have "default_charset = iso-8859-15" and my system uses utf-8 as default encoding (it_IT.utf8).

Try it once more with lastest 0.10 branch. I made some changes but it looks like a problem with Trac's util.html module too. If error still occurs, please post me traceback and debug log cut too.
