Some members of my forum registered with a Chinese name, and these name can't be displayed correctly in the PM page.
when I click "send PM" in their profile page, the send new PM page open, but the name in the "To Username" field is a lot of chars than can't be identify, like “?��Y3t3t???��?", and the system report "no such user" if I sent to this name, so I have to clear and input them myself.
Please help me.

You would have to alter your server and web browser to allow cheense characters.

You place the meta tag in between the <head></head> tags, also, try convering the symbols to unicode...

like this:

<%@ language="VBscript" codepage ="936" %>

And

The two steps must do at the same time.

pop_up_profile.asp

line 355

<td background="<% = strTableProfileBgImage %>" bgcolor="<% =(strTableRowProfileColour) %>" class="text"><% Response.Write("<a href=""javascript:openInMainWin('pm_new_message_form.asp?name=" & Server.URLEncode(strUsername) & "')""><img src=""" & strImagePath & "pm_icon.gif"" border=""0"" align=""absmiddle"" alt=""" & strTxtSendPrivateMessage & """></a>") %></td>

must be

<td background="<% = strTableProfileBgImage %>" bgcolor="<% =(strTableRowProfileColour) %>" class="text"><% Response.Write("<a href=""javascript:openInMainWin('pm_new_message_form.asp?name=" & strUsername & "')""><img src=""" & strImagePath & "pm_icon.gif"" border=""0"" align=""absmiddle"" alt=""" & strTxtSendPrivateMessage & """></a>") %></td>

Please test this change.
