Hi,
The current experience for me is very frustrating. Because my keyboard add non ascii characters I get often a blank page when I_try to reply. I'm forced to copy paste from this website:_https://pteo.paranoiaworks.mobi/diacriticsremover/ to remove non ascii characters.
What is worst the error page does not give any information to the user regarding what should be done to fix it. Yes the website is old and clunky but please could anyone fix this and just add the php code to sanitize the input / properly handle non ascii character. Or at least gives the user feedback on why it failed posting.
Sam

yuck! That stinks!
Just going to try and post a little test text here to see if it works for me...

hmmm... That worked.
I had just copied that text from the diacritic wikipedia page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacritic
Is there a specific diacritic that's getting rejected?
aha, just pasted a bunch more, again copied from the wikipedia page, and sure enough, it errorred out. Well, I got a blank page, no actual error message. Is that what you are seeing as well? :(
Going to paste them one by one now to see which one is triggering the issue.

It seams to be the non breaking spaces
ok, sorry for all that junk.
among the ones I tested, it didn't take two
first was the mark under the c in 'facade'

The second was the double dots over 'a', which wikipedia says is called: a-umlaut
Interestingly, o-umlaut did come through just fine.

Those i-umlat and i circumflex.
Can you post a link to the specific character that is failing for you?
gotcha.
Well, it does look like there are some gaps in OGA's character support and at least now we've narrowed it down to some specific characters.
Now we wait for programmer cycles to fix it. :)
Yeah this bug sucks. If anyone finds a way to fix it, let me know.

Occurs always when I use tripple dots, correct quotes and correct apostrophe. (edit: each single one of them breaks it)
