search module problem

Dear all,


I'm just about to fire up a site, which needs to have the classic search function, which is AFAIK provided by the search module. My problem is that search function simply misses many matches, when the search keyword contains special characters (which only appear in hungarian language, but that's the language of the site). Has anyone come across with a mistake like this?


Thanks,
Balint

1.1, which, I think, comes with core 1.0.5.

Page encoding is utf-8.

Hi

Take a look at this forum thread

It's about similar problem on searching special characters on CMSMS 1.02. If I remember correctly, I had to make following modifications:

1. Make sure that CMSMS uses "set names UTF-8" when connecting to mysql
2. Turn off FCKEditors HTML entities conversion
3. Modify search module no to use htmlentities

Code may have changed since 1.0.2 so instructions may be inaccurate.
