Okay, I know this may have been posted already - but something is wrong with my system and "special characters". I do not know if it has anything to do with my modifications to the script, or if this is inherent within the 5.3 code. But there are two symptoms:
1. I have the option to use special characters set to 1 (i.e. ON) so that they CAN be used. We have a lot of users who have such characters in their usernames. Yet, when I attempt to create a new account using any special characters, I get the rejection notice stating they are not allowed. I've quadruple checked the config file, it should be working.
2. See the attachment to this post, it's a screen shot of the "Who's Online" feature. Notice how the person with the apostrophe " ' " has the rest of his data omitted from the display? That cannot be right. Note, his name has an ' (the / is added by the script after the fact).
Can anyone confirm if they too have this problem or is it something in our heavily modified code that is causing this problem?
