Webuilder search / replace in files and utf-8

Post by stoffel »

Hi,

I am using Webuilder 2011 (11.2.2.131).

When I search and replace in files, and the files are saved as utf-8 without BOM, the coding will change after replacing. So I will see the spezial characters as symbols in the webbrowser.

When I open such file in the editor, webuilder will identify the file as utf-8, but I have to open and save the files in the editor to change them to correct utf-8 files.

Any solution?

Thanks
Stephan

I was finally looking into this today and could not repeat the problem.

It would be great if you could send us the file (both normal and corrupted version). Also I do recommend using UTF-8 with BOM (but you cannot use it for PHP).

Aivars can reproduce this:
