[TYPO3-english] Bizar RTE rendering with v4.5 on PHP5.4

[Loek Hilgersom]

Hi Muriel,

Thank you for your reply. I also discovered that is indeed a character set 
issue. But I couldn't just change these settings without getting problems with 
the special characters.

This morning I converted the database to utf8 and changed the configuration to 
utf8, now everything works fine again.

I still don't understand why this site stopped working correctly using the old 
character set, maybe the new versions of PHP and MySQL use different defaults, 
maybe something missing in the site config (though I think it was correct).

Anyway, now everything is converted, that's even better!
Loek
