Special Characters Problem

Hi All,

I am testing my site and I have 2 issues which are probably the same. In my shop all the characters are displayed correctly. However emails is a problem as below.

1. My shop name has a '&' symbol in it. When the emails are sent out to customers, the & is replaced with '&amp'. How can I make sure that these characters come out right.

2. In my product titles there are swedish characters like ö, å, ä. Again in the shop it displays right but when an email is sent out to customer the email shows wrong characters. see message below. Red is wrong.

1x Vas med pärlemorinlägg (IN06VasPearl) Kr 440.00

It should be
1x Vas med pärlemorinlägg (IN06VasPearl) Kr 440.00

Open catalog/model/checkout/order.php

At line 105, replace $mail->setText($message); with $mail->setText(html_entity_decode($message)); and see if it works ;-)

Perfect! Works..Thanks a lot!

Just another question. If I do a change of status in the order and send the email to customer the email subject still shows the wrong characters. Where can I modify to get this right?

admin/model/customer/order.php

Hi!

I just changed as below in the admin/model/customer/order.php file but still get the wrong words. Is there some other place I need to change as well?

line 36 - $mail->setSubject(html_entity_decode($subject));
line 37 - $mail->setText(html_entity_decode($message));
