File htmltags.inc is missing from the cvs... I used an old one (maybe this is the reason for my problems).

I found the following problems with the CVS:

1. It doesn't work well with foreign characters:

"Submited on 24/10/2004 - 23:09

Submited by user: administrador

Submited values are:

Telefone : 96 6075978

Mensagem : Isto =C3=A9 um teste."

2. The definiton for the width and height of the fields disapeared.

The CVS version no longer uses htmltags.inc.

1. It doesn't work well with foreign characters:

The module should work with non english charsets (I'm Swedish and swedish chars works just fine).
The cut out is it from the email or the watchdog log ?

* The text in the email is [0]quoted printable UTF-8 encoded text (as per RFC 1521).
If your e-mail client can't display it properly, it probably means it is broken.
I'm sorry I will not "fix" this since it will break the display in e-mail clients that do comply with standards.

* If the text is from the watchdog then it is as implemented (since I there log the quoted pritable version).
One may argue that this is a faulty behaviour, but since this is primaly a debug function I didn't pay it much attention at the moment I implemented it. I will fix this ASAP.

* Todays quiz: In a Open Source application used world wide, what is a "foreign character" ? :-P

2. The definiton for the width and height of the fields disapeared.
Could you give me a test case (step-by-step) explenation to reproduce this.
I can't seem to reproduce it.

Thanks for the report.

Hihi, foreign means "non-english", just too used to think all the world speaks English (out of my country).

1. Ok, maybe is a problem with my mail provider. I didn't used the watchdog.

2. Ahhh... The fields were lost with the upgrade and I simply wasn't seing them on the usual page. The configuration is now on a diferent place. :)

3. Ooopsss, just a sugestion: Can you make a little change so that it is possible to send the mail to multiple e-mails using comas or something like that. Ex: aaaaa@mail.pt; dbbbb@yahoo.com; xxxxx@hotmail.com ?

Thanks for everything,

Miguel

1. Which email client do you use (outlook or some webmail) ?
One thing one might be able to do is to convert the UTF-8 into iso-8859-1 before sending but this would require iconv support in the php installation which I rather not depend on since not every body have it installed.

2. Ok ... well is this better or worse ?
I made it this way to be more "userfriendly". Maybe I should start using the tabs instead ?

3. Have you tested with doing it a comma ',' seperated list ?
If it still doesn't work please open a new issue as a feature request.

1. It's webmail (mailblocks), maybe it's their fault (but it's strange, since other e-mails arrive properly);

2. Well, after you know where it is is perfectly ok. But the previous way was more obvious and faster to change;

3. I'll do it, as it doesn't work.
