Yep, I'm aware of the issue and will look for a solution when I'm back from Egypt (underwater photography workshop).

It is totally 90s, but I had no idea how big this whole thing would get when I started it. And I set the whole thing up wrong almost 10 years back, as the database doesn't use UTF8 and that's a serious pain to change without corrupting data (along with all the scripts). Plus all the imports, that use more encodings that you can imagine....

Will investigate and find something
