Doesn't like the é char

by **BlackRabbit** » Tue Sep 19, 2006 7:37 am

Hi,

I've recently install this addon to find that if a main name has the é char in it you will be unable to associated any alts to it...

I get an error on uploading the lua saying giving the previous chars before the é...

EG Main name = Stéphane
Officers note in Alt = Alt-Stéphane
Error = TheFather has invalid main name St, so we're making him a main. He doesn't have alts.

As you can see the script gets to the é and freaks out a bit.

TIA for any help.. (or a fix)

Change the regexp for Alt detection in the addon config.

I use: /Reroll\s*([\pL]+)/i to match "Reroll MAIN_NAME" followed by anything you want in the note.

This being based on Pleegwat's advice somewhere else in this forum.

Check the topic on Trouble with accented letters in notes for more workarounds. The one Sturmy describes works only in PHP 4.4.0+ or 5.1.0+
