Realm: Gondor | Lórien | Rivendell | Shire (in General)
Well like most of you noticed everything with an umlaut or ' above the o like in lorien is now this sign: ý.
Even characters have those signs.
Happend since the latest down time.
Are these signs here to stay?

Change your character encoding in your browser and it will be fine.
well my browser like many others can read umlaut.
This is not at my end but at the server end.
because they are non ASCII characters CB doesnt correctly displays these
Im writing this with IE now and lorien now displays as L�rien.
Also interesting. Its at my end.
But how do i change the character coding in firefox then?
Not sure if I understood your last post, but in firefox its here: view->character encoding

CB should specify a character encoding (and obey it...). iso-8859-1 should work?

iso-8859-1 does indeed work for me.
all right iso-8859-1 is working mine was set to unicode UTF-8

You shouldn't be setting it. The webserver should.

The drop-down menus (opponents, your own characters) will only display ASCII though. Setting the encoding does not affect those two things.
my firefox is set to iso8859-1 by default, and i still see the 'Subject: Realm: Gondor | L�rien | Rivendell | Shire ' in the title.
its just me i know,i know

I have very recently gone to firefox and I have made no changes at all and Lorien displays fine.

For me, these realms show perfectly normal.
In the fightlist however, it is still borked for me.
I just changed it into iso-8859-1, everything now is normal except the title of this post.

And now? btw you had Lýrien instead of Lórien...
O_O Seconds ago the title of this thread displayed incorrectly for me. I went to the stats - character - standings page, and it displayed fine.
I came back to this thread, and the title is now fine.

The point of the original thread is to show what was broken...

D'oh... anyway this thread still exists...
i just copy pasted it from the realm overview.
Something went wrong with the copy paste, i guess.
But everything is displaying perfectly now!
