Lance Bader commented on MPXDOC-195: ------------------------------------ NOTE: Although it has no affect on this problem, I have discovered a defect in the test case I supplied. The properties files in src\i18nBundles have not been converted to the required ASCII encoding. I expected the translators to return ASCII encoded files, but they used some native format instead. As a result, the navigation items, the section, headers, and the subsection headers will appear wrong, even if the rest of the page is generated correctly. I will attach an updated test case when I have converted the properties files correctly. I first have to find out what encoding the translators used (it is obviously not UTF-8) and fix them with native2ascii.
