As far as the macrons go, I don't really care if they're rendered properly if you could get them to at least render as the letter without the macron. Just showing up as a question mark is a bit annoying.

With the current approach, anything that can't be crammed into ISO-8859-15 is transliterated into the closest possible match that PHP's iconv functions know about - which for some reason in your case seems to be question marks (except for Japanese; you won't have *any* luck fitting that in!). I'll have another crack at getting things working end-to-end in UTF-8, but that may take me a while - PHP has a lot of rather strange problems with that approach that needs to be worked around. Currently about two thirds of the app uses UTF-8, and the other third uses ISO-8859-15.

Also, I've just noticed that while you've taken care of the "Share" at the beginning of every chapter in multi-chapter fics, it still shows up in fics with only one chapter.

Thank you - now nuked in single-chapter fics too .

I'll let you know if I come across anything else strange.

Thanks; feedback is always useful - it's great to hear about problems / suggestions / requests etc, and every little bit helps me make FLAG a better tool .

Thanks for all the hard work you've put into this!

You're most welcome .
