Re: Changing categories structure : what to do?

Re: .htaccess strange characters

Problem solved... I have no clear explanation, but today I have edited the file in Notepad, made an automatic replace of all strange characters (in currency and products parameter strings), uploaded again (same FTP) and... it works.
