Select any language-theme with language-locale different then english in this forum (fudforum.org), look at the dates of messages.

All i18n characters shows up as ???????

like:
german: Märtz= M?rtz
french: février= f?vrier
août= au?t
spanish: sábado= s?abado
swedish: måndag= m?ndag
and so on

This is a known problem that will be fixed in FUDforum 2.8.1.

A patch is available at http://cvs.prohost.org/c/index.cgi/FUDforum/chngview?cn=11887

Remember to regenerate your themes after applying the patch.

The patch dos'nt work on my system

if I force
$func = '\'.utf8_encode(strftime("';
$close = ')).\'';

without checking for
stristr($GLOBALS['char_set'], 'utf-8'
(commenting out corresponding lines in compiler.inc 1.98)

it works!

I think this global variable is not set on my system?
How do I check this?

Add an "echo" to the code and look at the output when you generate your theme.

PS: What is in your thm/default/i18n/$lang/charset file?

all my (unpatched) systemfiles are from the 2.8.0RC2 distribution and all thm/default/i18n/$lang/charset files contains "utf-8".
I don't understand why $GLOBALS['char_set'] is a reference to the content of this file?

It should be. Look at compiler.inc:

$GLOBALS['char_set'] = trim(file_get_contents($charset));
