thx Masi, i will investigate
Can you tell me which other language causes troubles ?

I looked to the Markers and this are the names:
###IMG_PATH###
###DISPLAY_DATE###
###MONTH_TITLE###
###L_THIS_MONTHS###
these markers are leaved unreplaced.

As you can see, all Names are with uppercase I , so no php-conversion is 
used.
There are some more markers using the I and they are replaced, that i don't 
understand.

In code there i found this:
 preg_match_all('!\###MONTH_([A-Z]*)\|?([+|-])([0-9]{1,2})\###!is', $page, 
$match);

and no conversion like strtoupper. If i understood you right, the problem 
will occure on using lowercase i and strtoupper - or are there more pitfalls 
?
