Character issue main slider. ÅÄÖ in Swedish alphabet not working. How can this be fixed?

Hey,
maybe you need to use entities instead of the special characters.
A list can be found here: http://unicode.e-workers.de/entities.php

Hi,

that is not an option since the company that I create the site for will take the ownership after development. To have a site in 2012 that needs entities is not ok.

Any other solution?

Hi,

I believe you can install an entities plugin. I think I've seen a plugin that transforms the characters to ASCII codes once.

Hey! I was able to reproduce the error. could you please try the following:

open includes/helper-slideshow.php and search for line 170:
```
		if($data) $data = "data-caption='".htmlentities($data.$button, ENT_QUOTES)."' ";
```
change it to:
```
		if($data) $data = "data-caption='".htmlentities($data.$button, ENT_QUOTES, get_bloginfo( 'charset' ))."' ";
```
I think it should work and I will apply it with an update today but I would be glad if you could verify that it also worked for you ;)
Cheers
