How to make chinese links in visualformat

meikel

Hi,
we are using visualformat editor. Some pages are in chinese and they are using chinese characters.
Everything works fine. The pages are created with UTF-8 and looks fine also.
Only one problem occurs frequently. When a chinese text is marked and made as a link, question marks "?" will be shown.
When you try to make a link, a dialog window shows up and you can't fill in chinese characters.

How can I make link in visualformat with chinese characters?
We are using TS 5.5

regards
meikel

You might need to check with on the Ektron site / Ektron's support - it's possible they didn't make the prompt for the link name able to handle UTF-8 characters - or it's possible that the browser you're using doesn't handle UTF-8 characters in dialog-prompts (try downloading a copy of Mozilla's Firefox and see if you can repeat the same problem that way ... it's not officially supported, but it's a reasonable way to test out things like this to see if they're specific to a browser rather than to the application)
