Key: FOR-1231
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-1231
Project: Forrest
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Internationalisation (i18n)
Affects Versions: 0.9, 0.10-dev
Reporter: Karl Wright
Priority: Critical
Attachments: FOR-1231.patch
We're using Forrest to generate the Apache ManifoldCF site. We've added Japanese content. The content worked fine via localhost:8888, but the generated html content does not load properly in a browser, even though the browser correctly divines that the HTML page has utf-8 encoding. It looks like many utf-8 characters in the source XML are handled correctly but some are corrupted. I've also tried the fix in FORREST-668 but this does not help. See http://incubator.apache.org/connectors and click on the tab in Japanese to see what I mean. The current source for the site can be found in: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/lcf/trunk/site.
I checked out latest Forrest trunk and built and used that but there has been no improvement.
