Hmm… Dont think you can map these. I simply avoid using the, and use ae, oe and aa insted. It´s only the label in sitemap I have seen this problem. Labels in items works fine.

#3


The only characters permitted in an Item name are letters, numbers and the underscore character. Names must not begin with numbers. Spaces and special characters are not permitted.

#4

Yes items cant use these special caracters either. But I would never suspect them to anyway. Items labels works fine though.

Hi,

I got it working

I have æøå i editor on my PC

When i edit the sitemap file in vi editor i just copy/paste æø or å in - it looks strange in the file but works.

sitemap hjarnovej label=“HjarnÃvej 3” {
Frame {
Group item=Bath label=“Bade vÃrelse” icon=“bath.png”
Group item=Atelier
Group item=Kontor
Group item=Entre
Group item=Kitchen
Group item=Stue
Group item=Bryggers
Group item=Bedroom
Group item=Kontor
Group item=GuestHouse
}
