Re: I experience problem with special chars like æøå in filename when using models.ImageField. and models.FileField

You are totally right Karen
This solved the problem, just as you said it would:
export LANG='en_US.UTF-8'
export LC_ALL='en_US.UTF-8'
Thanks alot Karen :o)

So now I only need to:
Fix the security issue to make sure that people dont upload php files
etc. (I just read a warning about that)
And if its possible, create some kind of resize function that can
resize huge picture files before they get saved.
And maybe create the rename function i menchined earlier in here, that
removes special chars.
