Non-ascii characters dropped when sharing to Facebook

pyry

Hi,

I've just used the 'Be social' app to share this gallery to my facebook page. All non-ascii characters (in this case a few 'ä'-letters) were dropped from the message part. "Kenttäilemästä" became "Kenttilemst", which doesn't quite get the point across any more.

I would guess to replicate, share any gallery to Facebook with non-ascii stuff in the message field.

I'm using Firefox 3.5.9 on Windows XP x64.

Sorry for the trouble. I will check into it.

Thanks. As further clarification, the URL part in the link is fine, with an 'ä' in the nice name. It's just the message bit.

I was able to validate this and report it to the programmers.

Great, thank you.

I'll keep an eye on the release notes. I've got the RSS all set.
