Defaultfolder and accented characters in iDisk

It seems that, using the defaultfolder to access any iDisk folder with accented chars in the folder name, gives a "can't open directory" error and automatically unmount the iDisk volume.
Example:
Code: Select all
set the directory to "/Volumes/userName/Web/Sites/recettes/Recettes_réalisées_avec_du_matériel_files"
gives this error.
Any suggestion?

Could you first use
answer folder to select the iDisk folder, and then check its path?
Code: Select all
on mouseUp
answer folder
if the result is not "Cancel" then
answer it
end if
end mouseUp

Yes, Jan, without problems: the path is displayed correctly. The problem is that defaultFolder gives this error anyway, and it seems to me that it doesn't accept encoded paths.

In that case, you should file a report in the
Quality Control Center
Make sure to include your MacOSX version in the report.

Done. But I hoped that somebody could suggest a solution

Only to inform everybody: the same problem happens with the "there is" operator (it return false and the iDisk is unmounted).
