I have noticed that foreign characters in the AJAX functions (eg. topic-rating, dynamic content in drop downs..) doesn´t show correctly, when using a translated language file. Letters, other than A-Z, shows the well-know ?-mark replacement, when encoding isn´t correct.

I guess the AJAX operates in UTF-8 only?

Anyway, by HTML encoding the special charathers manualy, like replacing the nordic "ø" with ø , you are fine, although a bit nerdy.

Have added in HTML Encoding to the Ajax content to fix this issue without having to add HTML Encoding in the language file.
