The links we store are given us by the Drupal core module. Do you have any i18n modules installed and enabled? This isn't a Translation component, that has to do with translating the strings of this module, and not the content or links on your site.

The links work correctly. I think the problem for you is a presentational one for the xsl. I'll try to do some research later this week to see if I can find some related material.

Sorry, no, I didn't find any time for it. Other projects kept me busy. It shouldn't bother the search engines, it is just the user representation that is bonkers. Ping me again after about 72 hours if I haven't responded.

Ok, let's try the following. In the xmlsitemap module directory is a file named xsl/xmlsitemap.xsl. In the file is a line 30 that reads

  <xsl:output method="html" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>

change the encoding="utf-8" to read encoding="unicode".

Will it help? I don't know but I do know the Russian character set is specified in UNICODE. I wouldn't change any other utf-8 value though, all of Drupal is UTF-8.

You cannot have "nice" looking URLS in sitemaps. They *must* be URL-encoded for special characters. This works as designed.

Yes, Dave, as far as the sitemap.xml file goes, it is correct. It is the presentation of the URL to the user via the xsl that needs adjusted. Let's leave it open until keha3912 has a chance to give us feed back on my suggested change. My suggested change doesn't change the output of sitemap.xml as the search engine sees it; it only changes the presentation in the browser.

Hmm... Yea, that won't help. We could extend our xml stylesheet with the str:decode-uri documented at http://www.exslt.org/str/index.html and decode the display string. I'm modifying this to a feature request and changing the title to match.
