OS , http server , SQL database , programming language files should in 2014 all be compatible ( configure ) with utf-8 ? . Windows OS from Microsoft don't support real utf -8 . b- Does the helper function is document somwhere in hikashop website ? c- python choose by default the encoding of the OS so since i use windows 8.1 64 bits i have for python for getdefaultencoding => 'ascii' for getdefaultlocale() => ('fr_FR','cp1252') no standart in 2014 beetween OS .Internet try to create standart by force browser to follow standart !!

How to solve this problem?")* Hi, 1. Windows supports UTF8. Why do you think it doesn't ? You need to handle UTF8 because old software are not always compatible with it. Old email servers for example, or old payment gateways. 2. No. That's a function specific to HikaShop internals and should not have to be used for third party developers since everything should use UTF8. And if you need to use encoding conversions, PHP has functions for that (iconv, utt8_encode, etc) which are actually what is done by our helper. 3. I would recommend to tell that to python developers. They probably have a good reason for that. PHP uses UTF8 by default since PHP5.0 I think.

The data is already in UTF8 and you can simply use the "strlen" function to get the string length of a UTF8 string. I don't know how your plugin works and what it has to do but if you don't need to convert the UTF8 to latin, you just have to use it.

And since your bank said that they accept UTF8 characters, there is no need to convert the texts as they are already by default in UTF8.

How to solve this problem?")* Hi, > the checksum is not correct based on your payment gateway API Like Nicolas said, the problem is in your payment gateway API, not in HikaShop. Your problem is not related to HikaShop or his encoding, so please contact your payment gateway support and see with them own to solve this problem. But we can't do anything for you because it is not an HikaShop problem. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.
