Turkish Character Support #1309

Open ozgrozer opened 9 years ago

ozgrozer commented 9 years ago

I have a json file which has listing city names of Turkey. Some cities have Turkish letters like İstanbul, İzmir. When I press İ there is no problem all of them listing but when I press i there is no result. I want to list cities which starting İ and I, when I press i too. How can I fix that?

in English i - I

in Turkish i - İ ı - I

sayfa kodlamanızda ve veritabanında utf8 kullanmanızı öneririm. ben bu şekilde sorunu çözdüm. i prefer use utf8 in db and page. i fixed by this.

We're using UTF-8 on both page and db, yet we're still experiencing the issue.

This happens because search algorithm works on characters code values, English 'i' and turkish 'İ' certainly has different character codes. Might need to dig dipper inside the implementation to fix this.
