No folder content. Perhaps a language problem!

Hi,
The app works great on my Samsung Galaxy s2, except that there is no items in a folder if the folder name contains one the the Danish special letters. (æ,Ø,å). Thats my observation.
Any idea to solve it?
Thanks, Jens.

Are you're using FTP or SFTP? Try 'ISO-8859-1' charset in 'Advanced' tab

Thank you for a fast response.
I am using FTPS(Explicit FTP over TLS/SSL). I have a QNAP server where you can either select FTP(standard) or FTP with SSL/TLS (Explicit). I hope the latter option gives me a safer connection.
I changed the Charset: to ISO-8859-1(Latin1), but it did'nt work differently. No files in the directory. I then changed the folder name using my pc, and then all files became visible with AndFTP. So it is indeed a Charset issue.
I then changed the protocol to FTP with default charset , and it had the same behavior of not displaying the files in the folder. I changed the charset to ISO... and still no files.
Any ideas?

Could you provide a testing FTP account to support(at)lysesoft(dot)com? So we could to produce/fix the issue?

Same problem with regular FileZilla FTP client, there is a "?" on the last folder. Which encoding are you using on your FTP server? I've try both ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 and it fails.

The Qnap server is set to "English". (Danish was not an option, so I guess this is the default setting).
I changed it to "Western Europe/Latin 1" and with AndFTP set to Latin 1 everything is working OK.
So I consider the case for solved. It was indeed a character set problem.
Thank you for your help.
