Accented letters in entry title
I was posting two reviews of books by John le Carre and wanted to put his name into the title. I used the html code "é" which appeared lilerally, although it worked in the text body. Is there any way to insert an accented letter in the title?

Doesn't just writing it "John le Carré" work?

I don't know how to do that in the Serendipity editor. I always use html codes.

I tried saving a new entry with that title and it worked just fine, no need to write any html code (in fact, I don't think you can - it will most likely be stripped).

Re: Accented letters in entry title
As I said previously, I don't know how to produce an accented letter in Serendipity. How did you do it?

Re: Accented letters in entry title
It's no different in Serendipity than any other word editor/software, hit the ´-button and then "e" (or whatever letter you're accenting).

or just do a copy & paste, which would be my quick & dirty choice.
In this case, I would hold a text nearby with all the foreign chars & signs I needed in the past.

Thanks - yes, I don't know why I didn't think of that. No way I can enter accents directly in the title line but I simply cut and pasted the word from the text, where the html code does work.Timbalu wrote:or just do a copy & paste, which would be my quick & dirty choice.

Yes, its hard to learn and keep in mind all these special characters and sometimes just much easier to c&p.
There was a javascript contest going on this year which still presents a demo site of all kind of playground javascripts not bigger than 1K, under http://js1k.com/demos.
Here you can find many ideas and somewhere inside a js based full HTML Charmap.
Very good to learn with or just to have a quick look.
