[Slashcode-i18n] Characters change during the process "submission -> MySQL"

[startux.org w. <web...@st...>]

Hi,

I run a portuguese slash site, http://www.dte.ua.pt

I'm  unable to get portuguese characteres right in the site.
Characteres like "=E1", "=F5", etc.

I'm using charset ISO-8859-1 in slash.
When i submit a story, with words with portuguese characters, they get
messed.
The "=E1", "=F5", etc., are replace by strange chars.
This shouldn't be happening. My MySQL is latin1.

If i go to MySQL and replaced the messed characters to the right ones, =
then
they appear correctly in the site.

It seems that some how, somewhere, something, is converting the =
portuguese
characters to messed ones before they enter in MySQL. That's my guess.

What can it be and how to solve this problem ?

You can go to the site and post anonymously to test.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you for your time and patience.

Warm Regards,
M=E1rio Gamito
P. S.: I'm running RH9 and slash 2.2.6
