Description xmlizer 2004-08-10 16:53:59 UTC

when a link contains UTF-8 characters, like [[étrusque]] in a timeline, it links to 
http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml/%E9trusque instead of 
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89trusque for example in the french wiki

This is known by the author. See supplied URL.

Comment 2 Christian Schlotter 2005-05-20 13:36:30 UTC

Although this bug is know by the author, I will list some things I stumbled across:

from http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphische_Darstellung_der_Europäischen_Universitäten:

In the timeline, every link has to be fixed like this:
  [...]
  from: 1607 till: 2005 color:PA text:"[[Justus-Liebig-Universit&auml;t Gie&szlig;en|Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen]]"
  [...]
--> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justus-Liebig-Universität_Gießen (correct, but should work without workaround)

It is strange that the following doesn't work:
  [...]
  from: 1573 till: 2005 color:PA text:"[[Universit&auml;t &Ouml;lm&uuml;tz|Palacky-Universität Ölmütz]]"
  [...]
--> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universität_26%Ouml;lmütz (the &Ouml; seems not to be recognized)

This wouldn't work, either:
  [...]
  from: 1573 till: 2005 color:PA text:"[[Olomouc#Universit&auml;t|Palacky-Universität Olmütz]]"  
  [...]
--> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olomouc%23Universität (%23 should be #)

Comment 3 David Gerard 2005-11-15 11:07:44 UTC

See also Bug 3965 (EasyTimeline does not handle unicode characters above 7e
properly), which isn't quite a dupe of this. I think.

Comment 4 Brion Vibber 2005-11-19 06:23:50 UTC

Incorporated fix for this into bug 3965 patch. Fixed in CVS.
