After updating to core version 202, the menu displayed garbled characters when switching between Simplified and Traditional Chinese. After investigation, it was found to be a problem with header.pl, which lacked support for multi-byte languages. Here is my modified version; hopefully, this bug will be fixed in a future release.
Correction probably planned in CU203
Hi.
The same problem occurs with German umlauts. Here, too, cryptic characters are displayed instead of the umlauts.
(I will add a screenshot later)
When is CU 203 scheduled for release?
Kind regards.

Once it has completed its Testing phase. The Testing release might be available somewhere in the next week os so.
CU203 has the change from unbound to knot and so has been getting a lot oif attention from the developers during the unstable state.
Once CU203 goes for its Testing release it will be very important to have as many users as possible do testing evaluations to get feedback on as wide a range of use cases as possible.
Probably because the code for the text for that button on the shutdown.cgi WUI page is taken as utf-8 encoded text while those other headings were not.
The change that was made is to have everything that was being escaped to be utf-8 decoded first, then escaped and then encoded back as utf-8.
This now ensures that everything that is being escaped is being dealt with in a consistent manner.
I’ve applied the patches from bugzilla.
And it works.
Thx, Michael.
