DJ Intelligence Error

[Steve Bourguignon]

I am trying to prove a point to DJI in regards to an error with their system.

Here is the problem, I use my own music database and have not had a problem til recently.

Any name or song that has and accent ie Beyoncé see the accent on the é when a client pulls up that they see this Beyoncé . Same thing with Michael Bublé

Any way who else is using DJI and Their own DB with the accents on the e's If I can show them its not just me then maybe they will figure it out.

Seems the issue has not been resolved, so no need to let me know now.

Thanks

I use DJ Event Planner, and I've had no errors, and more features then DJ intelligence...

Why not just do a search and replace of you database and change the accents to just regular e's? You are making something out of nothing, I mean is the accent really worth the headache?

 

[Steve Bourguignon]

What makes sense to you....

A. Have all the DJ's that have their own DJ and have accents in them fix all their databases

or

B. Have the manufacture of the product fix their error?


I choose B

Steve,

It has to do with how the web page is served, and conflicts between ISO 8859-1 character set, and UTF-8, and how browsers interpret that.

Not a biggie -- I see it all the time, on hundreds of websites.

Use only regular characters -- it will be compatible with anything

On a side note, you shoutbox guys will be happy to know vBulletin should be spec'ed to UTF-8 by version 4.1. Now whether or not we're still running vBulletin by then will be determined by how vB handles their current customers (me) and the proposed new licensing scheme.
