Hi,

thanks for your reply.

I tried the debug language. I have sent the info to your email contact@vi-solutions.de.

I also copy the en-GB.com_visforms.ini from v2.03 to v2.1.1. It works well. And I debuged it. I guess the problem is "COM_VISFORMS_DOKUMENTATION="<p>There is an <a href=\" www.vi-solutions.de/index.php?option=com...&Itemid=458&lang=en\ " target=\"_blank\" title=\"online documentation for Visforms\">online documenation for Visforms on the autors website.

"
"

I remove the hyperlink. It also works well.

Please check.

Thanks,

Hi,

that is absolutely gorgeous!!! Thank you so much!
When you look into the debug messages you send my, you can see, that every single line that contains a translation string with an escaped double quote \" throws an error. With that information and your notation, that the problem only occurs on php 5.2 I found the follow article.
www.ostraining.com/blog/joomla/translati...-language-overrides/
This article states: "Don't use escaped double quotes (i.e. \") as that will break in PHP 5.2.x".

When I started with Visforms for Joomla! 2.5 the documentation for creating ini files was quite incomplete and there was not explanation what to do with double quotes in translations. So tried a common way of escaping and it seemed to work... (because I have no longer php 5.2.x running).

Today the documentation on Joomla is still not complete but according to them double quutes should be escaped either with &qout; or with a syntax l like this.

COM_KEY_CONSTANT="My value is "_QQ_"great!"_QQ_". I like it"

Closing and opening the translation string every time and using the _QQ_ where you want to show a double quote within the string.

So I will correct the ini files for the next release. Til then, people who are still on php 5.2 and have the problem will have to correct the ini file according to this instruction by themselfs.

I don't know, why the last link breaks the language file and the many other escaped double quotes which were already present in the language file for Visforms 2.0.3 don't. But what matters most, is, that you found the solution!

Kind Regards,
Aicha
