I tried using unicode character "ć" because my name is Igor Jerosimić, but it doesn't display correctly as you can see...

I even tried html code "& # 2 6 3", if i put that one then it's all good on website but in BOINC it's displayed as & # 2 6 3

Is there any way for me to enter my name properly in both web and windows inviroment?



*note that this "& # 2 6 3" is without spaces

I used to have that problem, so I changed my name. Names are over rated anyway.

What I can see is your family name spelled correctly, up and including the last letter.

Yes it's displayed correctly here on the web, but in BOINC it's not displayed correctly, i guess i will have to leave it at this...
