Hi,
I am using openemr and I am very excited about it. Its really useful. But I have a problem. I use openemr in greek language so i need to use utf-8 character encoding. When i select the greek language for interface in the login panel everyhthing is Ok. The interface is in greek, I can enter greek names in patients etc. The only problem is with billing. If I select “checkout” from fees menu in the description field I get non recognizable characters instead of the words that I have typed. I checked the corresponding entries in phpmyadmin and they are ok. So the problem is somewhere else. I have downloaded the xampp version with openemr preinstalled. Can you please help?
Did you check the cod_text entries in the billing sql table? I can’t confirm this bug on the development version. The thing that is suspicious is the following though at openemr/interface/patient_file/pos_checkout.php :
Suggest removing the ucfirst and strtolower fucntion calls (ie. just leave $brow bare) and see if that works. If this works, please let us know, and we’ll then make this change in the main codebase and the next 4.1.0 patch.
Hi Brady,
many thanks for your detailed answer. Yes I had checked the entries in MySQL db (cod_text) and everything was showing correclty. Thats why I thought it should be somewhere in php as everything else worked flawlessly…
I can confirm that leaving bare $brow works!!! So you can mark the topic as solved!
Many many thanks. I have spent hours trying to solve the problem and fortunately you had the solution…
Keep on the good work
BR
Hi,
Although I am pretty sure that script is no longer used, wouldn’t hurt yank that also(interface/patient_file/encounter/diagnosis.php). Will plan o change both of these in the main codebase and next 4.1.0 patch.
thanks,
