Hi to all, I am having problem with Search Component. If I enter "ň" character into search box I get the following error:

Warning: utf8_to_unicode: Incomplete multi-octet sequence in UTF-8 at byte 1 in D:\www\joomla\libraries\phputf8\utils\unicode.php on line 176

The same error was in [6719] but in [6731] not more.
http://forum.joomla.org/index.php?actio ... board=11.0

The next problem is, the search component change characters. e.g. in Czech language: 'žluťoučký kůň' to 'žluÅ¥ouÄ�ký kůÅ_' in search area.

Hi,

I notified one of the devs about it - they need to check.

Confirmed.

Jinx, I'm wondering why we have to do a redirect after entering a search term at all, IMO it would be enough to have the search module perform a "GET" request to the correct URL, e.g. without SEF
or with SEF . I don't see any reason why the search term should be part of the URL, usually one does not want to have search engines index the our own search results ???

Alex, I think this thread should be moved to the 1.5 Q&T forum...

users may want to bookmark a "search result", and since the purpose of a search is the GET data from a system not to store (POST), the search phrase/term must be present in the URL.
http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/whenToUseGet.html

The fact that an application may in addition save the incoming search term is not relevant from the user's p.o.v. Even if GETting data may imply data storage (for statistics) in the backend, using GET is still appropriate.

Have fun,
CirTap

I should have written more clearly what I meant ;) The search word should be part of the URL which the user sees, but not part of the "static" parts within slashes. So something like http://localhost/joomla/search?q=blablabla is OK, whereas I don't see any reason why it should be http://localhost/joomla/search/blablabla.

ok, I see...
it could be arguable whether form-submitted data should be transformed into a path-like URI ... likely to become error-prone. doesn't make writing rules for routing any easier.

well it works with few characters but with some not ...

for example if i search "čćžđČŽĆĐ"  (slovenian special characters)

i get this link and it produces error (first and last characters are not right in searchword):

http://localhost/j15/index.php?searchwo ... om_content


searchword should be: 

searchword=%C4%8D%C4%87%C5%BE%C4%91%C4%8C%C5%BD%C4%86%C4%90



edit: 

also this string "šŠ" produces error

http://localhost/j15/index.php?searchwo ... om_content

but searchword is OK:  searchword=%C5%A1%C5%A0

Hi Johan,

I tested just about everything that got reported in the thread. But I'll move it back to be sure, and re-test.

Hi,

If I have a word e.g. "ňiň" in article and I want to search it with search function, I get no error message, but search function doesn't find this word.

e.g. there is a word "ňiň".

- I search "ňiň" - I get no results
- I search "nin" - I get all words which contain "ňiň"

SVN 9256

Jan

I tested again, also with the latest results H13 posted. What I can confirm is the fact that too many results are returned so it does not look fixed yet. Re-opening report again.

It seems that the problems with local characters is still there when you use an IIS as server, my testserver is an Apache and there it seems to work out fine.

IIS: http://www.naturpasset.se/index.php/com ... phrase=all

Apache: http://nrespons.itmedia.se/index.php/co ... phrase=all

Any ideas how to solve it on the IIS?

Hi, try to change the collation of your database tables (database, tables, columns). For me it works, I have had the latin_swedish collation (mysql default) in my columns. After changing it to utf-8 it works for me...
See: http://www.phoca.cz/articles/web/how-to ... -database/

Maybe it will help you.

For anyone that might be having a similar problem here is a solution to
unicode.php incomplete mutli-octet error.

I had this error when transferring articles form JCE to notepad++ and back.
With utf-8 encoding seems some character(s) didn't get encoded well, anyway
Change this in unicode.php at libraries/phputf8/utils/unicode.php line 167 onwards
Code:
           
 } else {
                /**
                *((0xC0 & (*in) != 0x80) && (mState != 0))
                * Incomplete multi-octet sequence.
                */
                /*trigger_error(
                        'utf8_to_unicode: Incomplete multi-octet '.
                        '   sequence in UTF-8 at byte '.$i,
                        E_USER_WARNING
                    );

                return FALSE;*/
                    //initialize UTF8 cache
                    // mine
               $mState = 0;
                    $mUcs4  = 0;
                    $mBytes = 1;
            }


as for when this error happens when inserting foreign chars into searchboxes etc..
in Joomla 1.5.22 with JoomFish 2 and Virtuemart 1.1.8 when inserting foreign chars into searchboxes seems to work correctly.
Anyway just type the chars in a text-editor encode in utf8 and paste into search box
but previous hack would also do the job..
