Umlaut conversion problem
0%
Description
Searchterms with uppercase German Umlauts are not found. This is due to the fact that in the file class.indexer.php placed in folder
typo3/ext/indexed_search
var $convChars=array( "ÁÉÚÍÄËÜÖÏÆØÅ", "áéúíâêûôîæøå" );
instead of
var $convChars=array( "ÁÉÚÍÄËÜÖÏÆØÅ", "áéúíäêüöîæøå" );
which means that uppercase ÄÜÖ are transformed to âûô instead of äüö.
This has been dealt with in
http://typo3.org/documentation/mailing-lists/german-user-list-archive/thread/29717/?tx_maillisttofaq_pi1%5Bsword%5D=indexed%20search%20%DC%D6&tx_maillisttofaq_pi1%5Banswered_only%5D=0&tx_maillisttofaq_pi1%5Bmode%5D=1
and several other threads (thats where I got the solution from)
Please change this with the next release.

i also submitted this patch to kasper in october 2004 and he is aware of this, should have been fixed in upcomming version 3.8.0.

This is obsolete because new indexed_search versions use the charset conversion class which deals correctly with all kinds of special chars.
