Hello Rich!

First, good job for your Dallery plugin! It work great also! But I found a little bug...

As my website is in french, all french accent (like é, è, â, etc.) are not display correctly. If I click the download link, it brings me to the download.php page and accents are prefect then. Maybe your plugin is doing (or not) a encoding conversion? Maybe it's a problem with UTF-8?

For example, instead of showing this: Myrianne Brûlé, it shows this: Myrianne BrÃ»lÃ©.

What can I change in your index.php to have this corrected please? You help will be very usefull!

Thanks!

One week has passed and nobody has an idea of the problem?

I'm ready to wait... I'm pretty sure it's not a big thing. But I just need to resolved it because actually, my plugins is not very readable to my users (and I have about 700 of them passing by)!

Just hope somebody will be able to help me...

Sorry for taking so long to reply to this, completely missed this post.

What you need to do is use the HTML entity for the acents:

See here for a list of entity names:

Alternatively you can use the PHP function htmlentities to convert a string containing accents into the entities.
