Smarty

[klintistwood]

Hi all,

I was building a site locally on my computer with Smarty and everything was running fine. I then uploaded all the files to a server but something went wrong with the encoding and I haven't managed to solve it so far.

here is what I use in my php file:
require 'libs/Smarty.class.php';
$smarty = new Smarty;
$smarty->compile_check = true;
$smarty->debugging = true;
$smarty->config_load('../lang/en.conf');
$smarty->setTemplateDir('./templates_cms');
$smarty->display('manager.tpl');

When using this, I get an empty page. If I remove the line where the configuration is loaded ($smarty->config_load('../lang/en.conf'), my page is loaded correctly but all labels stored in the configuration file are of course missing.

The en.conf file is in UTF8 but I also tried to have it in UTF8 without BOM or ANSI but nothing works. I have tried to empty en.conf to rule out any issue with its content but the problem remains the same.

php and tpl files are in utf8. Manager.tpl only displays plain text for testing purposes, the content of this file doesn't influence the result.

Any idea?

Thanks!

Check if the PHP configuration on the new server has the mb_string functions enabled.
