[SOLVED] XMap Not Showing Greek Characters

[BLaCKie_MoRGaN]

I have fixed the preferences thing by entering UTF-8 in language file.

Now i want to show these links to google from that link

http://www.epiruspost.gr/component/opti ... /view,xml/

As you can see there are garbled greek letters.

I use sh404sef to make these links. Is there anything i can do to make it right?

PS: I html sitemap they work ok.

Hi, which version of Xmap and Joomla are you using?

Please try the following:

Open the file /components/com_xmap/xmap.xml.php and look for the line:

Code: Select all

         echo '<loc>', $this->escapeURL($link) ,'</loc>'."\n";


and replace it by

Code: Select all

         echo '<loc>', $link ,'</loc>'."\n";

Thank you!

The same problem with xmap + sh404sef + russian simbols. But I found the other way before read this post - in xmap.xml.php at line 68 add 3-d parameter UTF-8:

Code: Select all

$xTrans = get_html_translation_table(HTML_ENTITIES, ENT_QUOTES, UTF-8);

By default it using ISO-8859-1. But in joomla 1.5.x we've got UTF-8..
So we have almost the same code and no surprise with code.

Hi, thanks for your message, but according the php documentation, the function get_html_translation_table doesn't accept a third argument! Maybe you meant htmlentities?

http://us2.php.net/manual/ru/function.htmlentities.php - here I've got the 3-d parameter, you are right. I didn't expected that it will work, but it works=))

Code: Select all

$xTrans = get_html_translation_table(HTML_ENTITIES, ENT_QUOTES, UTF-8);

- it's working code.
