No links on values in multi-byte utf-8 languages 04 Mar 2013 21:35 #6904

Hi,

When the field values are entirely in Hebrew there are no links in grid fields. The links work OK if the value is in English.
I tried other languages and found that the same problem exists with values entirely with diacritic Latin characters such as
ää

If at least one character anywhere in the field is in lower ASCII then the link appears even if the rest of the characters are multi-byte utf-8 characters. i.e.
äbä

I kindly request a workaround for this.

Thanks,
David

I think I found the problem here in dom/html.php line 241
if ((isset($this->href) || isset($this->target)) && (isset($this->dataValue)) && (basename($this->dataValue) != ""))

The problem seems to be with the basename function. I'm not sure that the intended argument was "datavalue". In any case this function is not considered UTF-8 safe. it appears to strips anything not in lower ASCII in the datavalue so a foreign language string will evaluate to false in the above code.

I've evaluated lots of other Joomla Component Dev tools such as Shell Manager (J)enesis Danny's Joomla! 1.5 MVC Component Code Generator Marco's Component Maker and I must admit that I love what I see on your site! Lots of potential... Otherwise Great Job and keep up the good work!!!
