BIG PROBLEM: CSS files not loading because of international characters in file name

I have Muse Beta 7 in Spanish.
The program creates a css file called master_a-página-maestra.css in css folder. It is referenced in the resulting HTML code here:
<!-- CSS -->
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/site_global.css?3951792836"/>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/master_a-p%c3%a1gina-maestra.css?fileVersionPlaceholder"/>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/index.css?3948175564"/>
When you work locally in your Windows formatted har drive, everything looks fine, but when you upload your files to a server, everything is screwed up. The server doesn't recognizes the URL and returns an error page, resulting in style errors in the entire site.
This can also happens with html files if the title of the page contains international characters or with images if the image file name in your Hard Drive contains international characters.
I already pointed out long time ago Muse was generating file names with international characters like á, ñ, etc but nobody cared about it. Too bad. I had to activate file name customization but I think that Muse should replace automatically this characters in the same way that it replaces other conflictive characters like commas or ampersands.
This is not a fault of the FTP client. Accented characters are not web safe regardless of the FTP client you are using. It is a server side issue. Some servers support it some others don't. I don't mind if it works in Adobe Catalyst server because the final website is going to be in another server and maybe next year when paid hosting is ended the client may move it to another server.
It makes more sense to replace accented characters in file names by their not accented equivalents ('a' instead of 'á', 'N' instead of 'Ñ', etc) and avoid all this problem.

Zak, It is funny you mention it, because the site I am talking about is hosted in 1and1. try this: http://www.artofwalls.com/rosannawalls/biografía.html
As you can see, the offending "í" in the file name causes 1and1 server to throw a "page not found" error. And this has happened with many other servers I have tried since.
Muse boast of generating code fully compatible with all major web browsers but by using international characters in file names it ggenerates code suitable only for very few web servers. International characters have been always a no-no for internet URLs. Internet was designed by people who didn't care about ascii codes beyond 127 so using international characters in html file names is just call for problems.
"to work with your hosting provider to determine how to enable Unicode encoded (UTF-8) file names and HTML files on their servers" is not a viable solution most of the time unless you are a Very Important Client of your host provider. If not, making changes means money for them and if you are the only one who complains, they are going to just tell you to not use international characters in your names.

  • File not found when using write characters to file

    OK, I am missing something really basic here.  Whenever I try to use the Write Characters to File function, if I try to give it a path beyond the C:\filename directory, it returns an error.  In other words, C:\Dan works, but C:\Dan\Test reurns an error. WHAT am I missing?

    Bingo! That is the problem. You have to make sure the directory exists before you attempt to write files to it.
         BTW: In LV there is a function for creating folders programatically. A good way to see if a directory exists is to attempt to list its
                   contents. If the list function returns an error, the directory doesn't exist and you have to create it.
    So make use of the error that the file write returns. If you get an error, start at the root of your path and test to see if each level exists, and if not create it. When you have all the folders in place repeat the file save.

  • Background CSS images not loading in firefox when using a CDN

    Hello,
    I am having trouble getting CSS background images to load in Fire fox when using a CDN.
    Here is a description of the problem:
    - Everything works fine in Chrome
    - Any images loaded through CSS do not load in Firefox (they load in chrome) when i have the CDN enabled.
    - Other images / custom fonts appear to load fine with the CDN enabled
    My setup:
    - wordpress 3.8
    - CDN - Rackspace Cloudfiles synced with w3 total cache plugin (using the 'origin push' configuration)
    - using Cloudflare (mozilla appears to load the site fine while cloudflare is active)
    More about the problem--
    I suspect that the problem has something to do with the htaccess file redirecting some urls or something-- but im not quite sure what to do about this.
    Has anyone encountered this problem before who can offer some insight?
    thanks

    Hi pvijeh, is that the explanation for a security error? I'm having trouble understanding the context.

  • Xml file not loading from different server

    Hi,
    I have a simple flash banner that is pulling a number from an xml file on a different server. When it gets to the frame where the number should be it just says "transferring data from eckul.com" and will not actually pull in the number. Unfortunately I can't put the files on the same servers. Any help would be much appreciated, below are the links and the xml code I'm using followed by the action script. Cheers
    http://www.sainters.net/newsletters/2010/flash_test_membership2.html
    http://www.eckul.com/number.xml
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <inventors>
        <person>
            <name>892</name>
            </inventors>
    function loadXML(loaded) {
    if (loaded) {
    _root.inventor = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
    _root.comments = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
    name_txt.text = _root.inventor;
    comment_txt.text = _root.comments;
    } else {
      trace("file not loaded!");
    xmlData = new XML();
    xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
    xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
    xmlData.load("http://www.eckul.com/number.xml");

    so, in frame 1 of your fla before you execute that cross-domain load method, use:
    System.security.loadPolicyFile("http:www.yourcrossdomain.com/subdirectoriesIfNeeded/crossd omain2.xml");
    where the following (crossdomain.xml) is in www.yourcrossdomain.com's root (IF you want to allow allow subdirectory policy files):
    <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
    <cross-domain-policy>
    <site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/>
    </cross-domain-policy>
    and in the subdirectory (and its descendents) that you want to allow access put crossdomain2.xml:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
    <cross-domain-policy>
      <allow-access-from domain="www.thedomainthatstryingtoloadcrossdomaindata.com" />

  • Troubles with xmp files not loading...

    I'm having troubles with xmp files not loading with images but are present in the image folders. does anyone know why this is happening and if there is a way to fix this. Also when trying to load the xmp individually they are grayed out and unable to load. I have tried this on different machines (Macs) and still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated in this issue.

    > The information contained in the XMP file is stored in the DNG file so there is no need for a separate file.
    Aww, yuck!! That's a real drag...
    When editing lots of files (yesterday's shoot produced 8GB) I back everything up to off-line storage and then, after doing all my edits and crops in ACR, I only have to copy over the small XMP files which takes no time at all.
    So if I re-edit the DNG with ACR I have to re-copy ALL the files again to the off-line storage.
    I used to sometimes even save 2 versions of the xmp files when I needed 2 different crops of the same images, such as doing a wide screen 'cinema' crop for a corporate client's Intranet presentation of their event, as well as more standard crops to be used for their newsletters.
    Guess I won't be using DNG any more..
    Thanks for the help Kees :-)

  • Cannot make a cache safe URL for "1025/styles/Themable/corev4.css", file not found. Please verify that the file exists under the layouts directory.

    HI
    i restored a sharepoint web 80 application in our test domain
    and after when i browse the new web application 
    it says 
    Cannot make a cache safe URL for "1025/styles/Themable/corev4.css", file not found. Please verify that the file exists under the layouts directory. 
    adil

    Hi  adil,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you encountered the error “Cannot make a cache safe URL for "1025/styles/Themable/corev4.css", file not found. Please verify that the file
    exists under the layouts directory.” .
    The issue happens in
    We have customized master page
    In the master page, we use path the script/style file like this: <SharePoint:CssRegistration name="<% $SPUrl:~SiteCollection/Style Library/coe/mainCOE.css%>"
    runat="server"/>
    While using the dynamic path in a multiple languages enabled site, language Id(1033 etc) will be added to the path automatically. That cause the file to be not found.
    To solve the issue, please download  the Arabic language pack http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3411 ,
    install it on  your SharePoint and refresh your browser.

  • Imported Jar file not loaded at run time ORA-105100

    Oracle 9iDS forms Version 9.0.2.9.0
    Oracle 9iAS Release 2
    I have imported java classes from a jar file into my form. I have it working in client server. Added the entries to the classpath in the default.env and system environment variable for development of the form and for execution.
    Moved the jar file, form and testing html to the application server. Modified the classpath in the default.env file. Tested the form. Got the ORA-105100 error. MetaLink note 261650.1 states that error frm-40735 When-Button-Pressed triger raised exception ORA-105100 if calling a java function from a jar file. Cause: Jar file not loaded at run time. Solution: add in your default.env CLASSPATH parameter your jar file including the whole directory of the jar file location. That has been done and the OC4J has been restarted. Still get error.
    Oracle support has not been able to give me much help as of yet. Does anyone have any further ideas, or documentation that I can read to help get this working?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance that is offered.
