I have a product called, "Über Membership, Monthly". The "Ü" gets translated to some other characters when sent to PayPal using the Website Payments Standard integration. Is this an issue with how Ubercart sends the data or is this issue on the PayPal side? Please advise.

Probably an issue on the PayPal side. For my part, I tend to type it out as "Ubercart" for these such occasions.

Actually, I did a little research out at the PayPal Developer Community and found that it may be related to the form that sends to PayPal (at least that's what PayPal points to). Here is the list of related threads: http://www.paypaldeveloper.com/pdn/search?submitted=true&type=message&q=...

Don't you want to protect the "Ü" ... :>

Attached the simplest solution; indicate to Paypal what code page is used by your application. As far as I can tell Drupal talks utf8.
