tell a friend character bug

[zearth]

hi there pligg devs, I just found out a bug when I'm trying to use 'tell a friend'

when I use latin, croatian and other character languages it shows as a hexa characters in the email and not the true character of it, if you want try this text and use it as a message to the person you want to tell that link

Ovo će te sigurno interesirati. Što se to godinama zbivalo u jednoj prosječnoj obitelji iz Darde u Baranji i drugoj, imućnoj, iz "prijestolnice" Slavonije, pa da sada rođene sestre ne razgovaraju, a nekoć slavonski dobrotvor čami iza zatvorskih rešetaka...

the output with this character ć will be %u0107

could anyone help me to fix this stuff I'm lost and cant fix it for the whole day
thanks

It's weird that the turkish characters in the stories display well but the characters in the tell a friend message box are corrupt. I found the code that refer to these section. In recommend.php on the line 109 and 111;

if ($current_user->user_login){
		$body = $message . "\r\n\r\n" . Included_Text_Part1 ." ". $current_user->user_login .",". Included_Text_Part2 ."\r\n\r\n".$link->title." - " .strip_tags($link->content)."\r\n\r\n" ."Haberi bu linkten inceleyebilirsiniz: ". $link_url;}
		else{
		$body = $message . "\r\n\r\n" . Included_Text_Part1 ." bir arkadaşınız". Included_Text_Part2 ."\r\n\r\n".$link->title." - " .strip_tags($link->content)."\r\n\r\n" ."Haberi bu linkten inceleyebilirsiniz: ". $link_url;}

The

$link->title." - " .strip_tags($link->content)

has no character problem but the

$message . "\r\n\r\n" . Included_Text_Part1 . bir arkadaşınız". Included_Text_Part2

parts have problems.

Generally I could find the problems' source but because my limitted php knowledge I need your help.

I solved the problem adding additional character encoding functions...
