Images with special characters in filename won’t display

Well not in Explorer or Opera, but they do in Firefox.

As you can see here.

The medium image displays because I put "$bigimage = rawurlencode($bigimage);" in the showpost.php file on line 1521, but the thumbnail and full image won't display.

Try in pp-inc.php placing this line in bold to see if it makes thumbnails show across the board. it think your using some naming convention that messes with those browsers

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

It now gets the nothumb.gif instead of missing image. Also all thumbs with a special character in the filename now display nothumb.gif.

Yeah your using some different filename convention no one uses.

My first response would be to say do not use that. All your photos show for me though

The filename uses Korean characters. PhotoPost should be able to handle different languages. I will continue to work on it myself to see if I can fix it. Will have to sort out this problem first thou.

Photopost does not have korean language and to my knowledge noone has every tried uploading files named with special characters. Thats asking for trouble with the browsers out there cause each of those browsers would need to have the appropriate stuff installed to translate those characters otherwise things will not display.

Even files with names like "cold%20kiwi%20013~0.jpg" wont display. So i have done the following and all images now display ok.

showphoto.php
add on line 548:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

pp-inc.php
changed

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

to

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

showfull.php
add on line 85

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

on course this is only tested on my setup with only image filetypes.
