Hi Sergio,

The login page is generated from the template=20
/phpwiki/themes/default/templates/login.tmpl no matter which theme you=20=

are using, unless you create this file too in MacOSX/templates. Those=20
funny characters are simply provided as some examples of valid=20
ISO-8859-1 letters you can use in WikiPagenames or login names. (I=20
tried to pick a good range of common european letters without=20
displaying the entire ISO-8859-1 charset).

Are you saying that this sentence appears in your HomePage or just when=20=

you log in? If it does appear on your HomePage, are you sure someone=20
didn't just edit HomePage and paste it in? ;) (Check the PageHistory of=20=

the HomePage.)

Cheers,
Carsten
