Can't view dumps

warppooted · November 6, 2019, 13:18

Hi, I recently posted a dump of my character (http://angband.oook.cz/ladder-show.php?id=22930). After I updated it, and when I went to view my character, the character sheet turned into a long thin black box.

I noted it was the same for the other Angband 4.2.0 dumps I viewed - however, the other variants (FrogComPosband etc) were fine.

Is there an issue with the site, or is it just me?

Fixed, thanks for reporting.

Looks like the dumps now contain some non-UTF8-compliant byte sequence that chokes the entites function.

Any idea where that is happening? I don't think I've really done anything to the dump code.

It says ILLEGAL BYTE on line 110:

Angamaite has an umlaut on the e, I'm guessing this is the issue?

The issue is that all inventory entries are not in UTF-8 but in Latin1 or something. Later in the dump the history section is properly in UTF-8

Cool, thanks. Anyone with half a brain should be able to track it down from there, so I might get lucky
