a minor thing really ... when there are special characters within parameters passed to a shortcode they aren't interpreted - but displayed as an error - a ? in a diamond. Is there a way round this?

My shortcode is:

Code: Select all

$FUNCS->register_shortcode( 'tooltipB', 'tooltipB_handler' );

   function tooltipB_handler( $params, $content=null ){
      global $FUNCS;

      extract( $FUNCS->get_named_vars(array(
         'trigger' => '',
         'popup' => ''      
      ), $params) );

      return '<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="'.$popup.'">'.$trigger.'</button>';
   }

Can you please post the exact parameters used?
Thanks

I tried using the hex value for é via the Source view in the wysiwyg and got the same result.
