I have some issues with character encoding with german umlauts and other special characters in the title and description field:
1. Title field: If I have german umlauts in the title field they get displayed as this '?' in a rhomb. When I HTML-encode them the '&' in the HTML-code gets translated by the htmlspecialchars() function to & and that destroys the encoding.
2. Description field: As it is enclosed in a [[CDATA]] section HTML-encoded stuff is displayed right but not-encoded stuff is the same '?' in a rhomb. Here the hmtlspecialchars() function does not reencode the '&'.
Any fix to that? Btw., in UTF-8, shouldn't international characters be displayed right?
