#760 Upload function doesn't allow Asian characters

[lsup]

There's a problem with the filestorage module when uploading files by:

1) Single file upload /zip uplload with Chinese characters (or any other asian language) :

A) We had a problem with your input:
Invalid Character(s) found:
Your filename '左面显示.scf' contains atleast one character that is not allowed in your character set 'alphanum'.

B) We had a problem with your input:

Invalid Character(s) found:
Your filename '测试.zip' contains atleast one character that is not allowed in your character set 'alphanum'.

2) ZIP file upload (testtest.zip with files with Chinese characters (can extract but system doesn't show filenames in Chinese) :

¦Ô-È - vrwa - vrwa -
sub1 - vrwa - vrwa -
mozilla firefox.lnk 1 Kb 23/07/2009
sub2 - vrwa - vrwa -
À+ð+2010.lnk

4) After the above is fixed, I suspect that there may be a problem downloading the files as a zip (ie. filenames with Asian characters). I would suspect the files be able to download successfully but with unreadable file names. For example, one of files may turn out to be À+ð+.doc after decompressing the ZIP file(this is very similar with GMAIL but they solved the problem by asking you to choose what language the filenames are in before you download).

Would someone be able to fix this problem?

Thanks!

There is a parameter in Admin -> Parameters -> internet-filestorage that determines the allowed character set.
