Description Samed Beyribey 2013-11-06 23:24:12 UTC
Using non english characters in patron category description causes double encoding as a result letters like Ç looks like  Ã etc.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new patron category. (cgi-bin/koha/admin/categorie.pl?op=add_form)
2. Use XYZ (or whatever) as category code.
3. Use non english characters in category description. (e.g ÇİÖŞÜĞ) 
4. From system preferences, add Ç Ş İ Ö Ü Ğ to the alphabet. (A B C Ç D E F G H I İ J K L M N O Ö P Q R S Ş T U Ü V W X Y Z)
5. Visit patrons page. (cgi-bin/koha/members/members-home.pl)

I could reproduce that on 3.12.06 (debian wheezy, packages from repository) and 3.12.05


I'm not sure if this is related to bug #6554
