Re: [Bug 612866] [NEW] Can't name dael, dael-group, dataset, ind in Vietnamese characters

 

The Javascript validator is not setup to handle non-ASCII characters..

/^[\w-.,()\/%'\"\s]+$/i.test(value)  [ line 81, additional-methods.js]

The validator is expecting ASCII only characters (. So something
like..\w)

Số trường hợp bệnh tả

needs to be converted first to something like..

S\u1ed1 tr\u01b0\u1eddng h\u1ee3p b\u1ec7nh t\u1ea3

which should be valid with a bit of tweaking to store and display the
escape sequence correctly.

Another possibility would be to use the \p{L} syntax, which should
allow all Unicode letters.

Regards,
Jason
