I'm trying to get some foreign text into a challenge title, but DPC is not understanding it and is giving me gobbledegook for a title, instead of the text. Anyone know if there is a way of getting a non-English character set to show up in a title on this site?

so you mean you're copying and pasting the characters or are you doing the alt commands or what?

copy and paste seems to work for accents

The only way would be to get the admins to install unicode support for the site on the server.

That would be the only way, as it is on normal fonts are accepted, although I have seen Icelandic written here before. There was a thread about Cyrillic here a couple of days ago. Here.

Thanks. I was afraid that was the answer. I'll have to approach it in a different way then.
