6607,RSS widget doesn't correct the target encoding,guillep2k,guillep2k,"When your blog is iso-8859-1 and your RSS widget takes information from an UTF-8 blog, the characters in your page can become garbled. The reverse is also true (your blog is UTF-8 and the RSS'd blog is ISO-8859-1). Here's my proposal for wp-includes/rss.php (around line 62):


{{{
		$this->parser = $parser;

#MODIFICATIONS BEGIN
switch( @strtoupper(get_option('blog_charset')) )
{
	case 'UTF-8':
		xml_parser_set_option( $this->parser, XML_OPTION_TARGET_ENCODING, 'UTF-8' );
		break;
	case 'ISO-8859-1':
		xml_parser_set_option( $this->parser, XML_OPTION_TARGET_ENCODING, 'ISO-8859-1' );
		break;
}
#MODIFICATIONS END
		# pass in parser, and a reference to this object
		# setup handlers
		#
		xml_set_object( $this->parser, $this );
		xml_set_element_handler($this->parser,

}}}

This would handle only iso-8859-1 to utf-8 and vice-versa, but most western blogs use one of these two encodings. Handling a percentage of the cases is better than none at all, I think. :)",defect (bug),closed,normal,,General,2.5.1,normal,duplicate,has-patch tested,guillep2k
