Special character problems in RSS and mail subject

[ditto]

I am using Pligg 9.9.0, and have two different problems, one with RSS and one with the mail from the Tell a friend-function.

RSS-problem:
Special characters in the subject in all the RSS-feeds is removed. My site is in norwegian, and we use æ, ø and å.

Example for a story title: Testæ testø testå
This title becomes like this in the RSS subject: Test test test

But the characters displays nicely in the content of the RSS, its only the subject that have this problem.

I have not been able to find out how to fix this. Anybody know whats wrong?

Tell a friend mail problem:
When sending a tips from the Tell a friend-form, the subject of the mail don't display special characters properly.

Example of subject: Title test with å
The mails subject becomes like this: Title test with å

What could be wrong? All the special characters displays nicely in the rest of my site, its only in RSS and mail subject i have problems (two different problems).

I am sure this must be a bug.

If I remember right the RSS code is removing those characters. You can edit the code to remove that.

Did anybody find a solution for the special characters in the sent mails. I am searching for a solution for the last few days but I couldn't.

Same problem here. Well, it's slightly different because for me the subject of the email displays nicely but the special characters don't display well in the story summary.
