Shipping address formatting problem


Smoky Barnable

Recommended Posts

I have an occasional shipping address formatting problem where the shipping address is not written to the database correctly. For example,  the customer street address is Dürrenberger Straße 8  but is written to the database as Dürrenberger StraÃe 8. Any thoughts?

That's a problem with charset processing.  You're viewing a UTF-8 string as if it were ASCII. 

Check that the charset in both HTML and the database is set to UTF-8.  In particular, check per language. 

Always back up before making changes.
