 * Hi, for some reason, one of my posts doesn’t display Umlauts properly:
    [http://www.iroke.de/wp/2005/05/22/the-first-200-days/](http://www.iroke.de/wp/2005/05/22/the-first-200-days/)
   There are other posts on the site (i.e. under “Japan”) which use Japanese character
   with no problem, but not that post. What’s wrong with it? I tried to save it 
   with different configurations per Textcontrol, but that didn’t help. Any thoughts
   are highly appreciated…
 * p.s.: I took a look into the database: what’s the difference in the database 
   between post_content and post_content_filtered? what’s filtering it, the text
   filters I enable for each post (i.e. texturize1 or wpautop?)
 * I had a scrambled character in it, too, but when I put it back to ä the post
   still didn’t look right. In the post_content_filtered cell the “Schröder” read“
   Schröder” (with & Atilde ; & para ; ) which is not right as well…
 * There’s no difference whether I choose wptexturizer, smarty pants or no encoding…:-/

 * sorry for bumping. I deactivated Textcontrol and reposted the article, everything
   went back to normal. Serves me right to play with plugins…
