[webmin-devel] lang encoding problem for webmin application itself

[Emmanuel S. <esa...@no...>]

hi all,

I need confirmation on the following point:

-> when translating webmin itself, "/webmin/lang/*" should be encoded
for latin-1 languages, but "/lang/*" must not be encoded at all (or
webmin's dynamically generated images will contain code instead of right
character).

am I right?

thanks,

bye

afaik, no :-)

If letters are selected to be shown as images in menu, some script =
escapes
the HTML-Entities into 8bit and then presents the relevant gif.

This is what Jamie told me sometime ago, if I am not totally in error.

bis dahin - kind regards

-----
cd /usr/share/webmin-1.150/lang/
char2ent.pl --mode=work fr
-----

-> webmin interface ok

-----
cd /usr/share/webmin-1.150/lang/
char2ent.pl --mode=html fr
-----

-> images are broken (code instead of roght character).

Well, this info is only "afaik" ;-)
Maybe there have been changes in the meantime causing the script to =
change.
Jamie will clarify hopefully.

Assuming you are using one of the built-in themes, all entities should
be converted to ascii automatically before a title made of image letters
is displayed. However, non-standard themes may not do this .. which
theme are you using?

here is a smurf patch against "mscstyle3/theme.pl" from the last
webmin-1.152 that solved my problem.

Argh .. I just checked my code, and in fact no entity conversion is done
for that theme! I will fix this in the next development version ..
