There still seems to be a problem with subjects that have non-ascii characters. E.g.

http://www.eaglecentral.ca/forums/index.php?t=msg&goto=137722&S=2ba c665fd7aef3392e70dde94c5b1157#msg_137722

The subject has a TM symbol in it and when importing FUDForum just gave up I guess. I've had user's complain that german characters don't show up properly in the subject as well, which is probably the same issue.

I can send the original newsgroup to anyone who's interested looking at it. Frank, it's e.sup.e in my normal newsgroups. The groups are sort of off the beaten path and I don't want to attract spammers by posting it here in plain text Smile

Cheers,

James

Quick update...

That link will now have the right subject--I edited it by hand. It did say "(no subject)" without the quotes.

Can you please send me the message id?
I've imported the group, but cannot find that particular message.

Got it. Thanks for the mail. Here is the patch against nntp.php:

@@ -260,7 +260,7 @@

 		fud_wordwrap($msg_post->body);
-		$msg_post->subject = htmlspecialchars(apply_custom_replace($emsg->subject));

 		if (!strlen($msg_post->subject)) {
 			log_script_error('Blank subject', $emsg->raw_msg);
 			$msg_post->subject = '(no subject)';

Implemented that fix, see test thread here

http://www.eaglecentral.ca/forums/index.php?t=msg&goto=137833&S=438 90b1c15605d9487de9763ace80280#msg_137833

Initial message was posted through website and it showed in Thunderbird reading the NNTP server directly. The reply was composed in Thunderbird and then imported into the FUDforum. It didn't stall this time (which is an improvement) but it stripped out the TM symbol. The TM symbol is in the subject line in Thunderbird. You can find that in the test forum at the same news server....
