RE: English Lang file doesn't work :(

Something is happening when you use '
Try deleting them.

Trying is the first step to success.

PHP Code: (Select All)
<Entry Name="ItemDesc_sleutel">A key to exit you´re house!</Entry

For one, the word should be your, but if you ever need to use you're, use the apostrophe sign ' and not the accent sign ´

The use of this sign might also be an issue, because this sign isn't supposed to be used alone, but rather in combination with another letter. It makes é á ó etc.

It shouldn't matter though right? It's just a string of text after all. It's not executing code or anything. I have a bunch of apostrophes in my text entries and they all work perfectly fine.

It will change something, if the .lang file is seeing it as an important symbol that changes the code.
Then it DEFINITELY matters.

There's a difference between this ' and this ´ and that's what's important here!

Apostrophies are fine to use.

RE: English Lang file doesn't work :(

If you delete it, and it still doesn't work, it's not the problem.

If you delete it, and it works again, you deleted the problem.

So this is clearly not the problem. You must've editted something else.

This is the final part of my lang file. and the 2 notes are here.

Entry Name="Note_note3_Text"-30 September 1941 [br] [br] [br]What do you want from me?! i didn't do anything! Please leave me alone!!!! SHUT UP! You need to come with me, you need to test my things. (another person) Sir, what is your plan? [br] [br] [br] [br] The girls is screaming and crying. the peoples are talking. but what is the plan?! of that evil man. No one knows.</Entry>
