Description Markus Keller CLA 2011-06-22 13:21:25 EDT
http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/acknowledgements_3_7.php
has encoding issues. The page source contains
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
, but the actual contents of the PHP source file looks more like ISO-8859-15.

Maybe the Webmaster knows a PHP trick to change the encoding of the generated page to ISO-8859-15?


Another solution apart from using HTML entities could could be to just store the content as UTF-8 (copy the whole file to the clipboard, change the encoding of the file in Eclipse and then paste the contents again). A disadvantage of this solution is that you have to do this for every file, and without setting the project encoding in Eclipse, a copied acknowledgements_3_8.php will have the same problem again.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
