[EP-tech] {Disarmed} International characters in advanced search fail for XML-Export

Hi together,

(using ePrints V3.3.12)

found a strange behaviour in combination Advanced Search / Saved Search / XML-Export whithin context of international characters: If we use a saved search on a author/creator with german Umlauts (international encoding), the XML-Export-Plugin returns an empty XML-Dataset. Database entry savedsearch|spec looks like smart utf8 to us (look at the bottom of this message).

Does anybody know this behaviour ...or better know how to fix it? :)

Cheers
 Jens


In detail:

1.) Creating an Advanced Searching for an author/creator WITHOUT German Umlauts (e.g. "Vieler")

- Database shows spec:

?plugin=Internal&searchid=advanced&dataset=archive&exp=0%7C1%7C-date%2Fcreators_name%2Ftitle%7Carchive%7C-%7Ccreators_name%3Acreators_name%3AALL%3AEQ%3AVieler%7C-%7Ceprint_status%3Aeprint_status%3AANY%3AEQ%3Aarchive%7Cmetadata_visibility%3Ametadata_visibility%3AANY%3AEQ%3Ashow

- Screen-View:

http://www.<eprint-server>.ch/id/saved_search/<savedsearch_id>

and works!

and works!


2.) Creating an Advanced Searching for an author/creator WITH German Umlauts (e.g. "Krüger,G")

- Database shows spec:

?plugin=Internal&searchid=advanced&dataset=archive&exp=0%7C1%7C-date%2Fcreators_name%2Ftitle%7Carchive%7C-%7Ccreators_name%2Feditors_name%3Acreators_name%2Feditors_name%3AALL%3AEQ%3AKr%C3%BCger%2C+G%7C-%7Ceprint_status%3Aeprint_status%3AANY%3AEQ%3Aarchive%7Cmetadata_visibility%3Ametadata_visibility%3AANY%3AEQ%3Ashow

(so "Kr%C3%BCger" looks like good old utf8 stuff to me)

- Screen-View:

and fails... let's say: It's empty:
