Guys,

When I upgraded my WWF forum from 6.X to 7.01, I tried to add a line as "charset=gb2312" in one file (Can't remember the file name).

After that, Chinse language is working well on my forum, also the email notification are GB2312 coded, emails displayed in Chinese directly. Now, I upgraded the forum from 7.01 to 7.51, I found that the good days are gone, the email notification from the forum are coded in "West European" Language and I have to change the encoding to read Chinese every time.

Is there any suggestion that which file and where I should add this line: "charset=gb2312"?

Thank you!

The internal workings of the forum have not changed much from 7.01 to 7.51a so it should still work.

Add the encoding to the header.asp file found in the includes directory.
