Special characters are not properly displayed in overview of notes. #15

When you use special characters like the German Umlauts ä, ö, ü, they are not properly displayed in the overview of notes (the view you get when you press "return to notes":

"für meine Bedürfnisse" instead of "für meine Bedürfnisse"

When you look at an entry individually (view) they are displayed correctly.

hello, same issue with not Latin languages. gibberish showen instead of readable text

i found a quick solution in the code: file: mod/notetaker/classes/local/utilities.php line: 148 need to add charset declaration: $htmldom->loadHTML($str); --> $htmldom->loadHTML('<?xml encoding="utf-8"?>'.$str);

thanks in advance, Daniel

Hi both, thanks for writing here. My apologies for not pushing a fix sooner. I am just working on getting the code updated to work on 3.11 so will include a fix then. Thanks for your patience
