Hi,

I am working on Swedish translation. Language switching works properly but translated text is a bit grambled.

Eg. Login Page translation shown in browser:
Genom att skapa ett konto kommer du kunna handla snabbare, vara uppdaterad hur det g�r med din best�llning, och h�lla koll p� de best�llningar du gjort f�rut.

Correct Swedish text Should be (in language account/login.php)
Genom att skapa ett konto kommer du kunna handla snabbare, vara uppdaterad hur det går med din beställning, och hålla koll på de beställningar du gjort förut.

What is causing this problem?
Please help.

Det tyck som du har problem med teckenuppsättnignen, kan du justera till nordiska tecken, Nordic (ISO Latin 6) charset . Can you try to change the typeset ?

Hi

� problem should be gone when you check your translations. Check all files in catalogue/language/swedish/ folders. If there is ä or ö letters replace them with ä and ö

In Admin panel check system > localisation > languages
edit Swedish
insert into locale field: sv_SE.UTF-8,sv_SE,sv,swedish

Test the shop and emails sent to customers.
I´m still strugling with email´s finnish translations.

Character encoding was already set to UTF-8

Code: Select all

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
It didn't work.

Rather, it worked for me when I changed all the language files' encoding to UTF-8.

Hope this helps someone.

Thanks.
