[OSM-dev] UTF-8 problems in informationfreeway?

[Stefan Baebler]

Another artifact of similar utf problem can be seen at yesterday's
lowzoom(!) tile:
http://tah.openstreetmap.org/Tiles/info.php?x=1107&y=727&z=11&layer=tile
Mengeš ("š" is ok)
Domžale ("ž" is ok)
Moravče ("č" turned into "Ä ")

On zoom 12 and higher "č" in Moravče is ok:
http://tah.openstreetmap.org/Tiles/info.php?x=4431&y=2909&z=13&layer=tile

There definitely is a problem _somewhere_.

In today's and last week's dump node is ok (extract made with osmosis!):
  <node id="29161753" timestamp="2007-12-02T08:52:13Z"
lat="46.1356895" lon="14.7445634">
    <tag k="created_by" v="JOSM"/>
    <tag k="name" v="Moravče"/>
    <tag k="place" v="town"/>
  </node>
(this xml snippet is an extract of a planet file, done with osmosis
for local archive: http://osm.baebler.net/data/ )

Osmosis seems to handle that in files(!) just fine, but osmxapi gives it wrong:

http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.5/node%5bplace=town%5d%5bbbox=14.5,46.1,14.8,46.2%5d
either there is a bug in osmxapi or during the import into its db.

hope it helps tracking it down.

greets,
Štefan
