UTF bug fix on reviews system

[michael_s]

Hello guys, i am not sure exactly if it was a bug or what but in my site the reviews system (the standard reviews system) was not working correctly with the UTF-8 (greek), maybe it has this problem with other languages too.. The first problem was on the reviews block it was apeearing a box symbol instead of the normal letter in every 15 letters, and the second problem was on the reviews.php admin, it was appearing these symbol boxes in the preview so it damages the whole text..

So the fix that worked to my is these chages :
in the includes/boxes/reviews.php

### find this : ###
$rand_review_text = tep_break_string(tep_output_string_protected($rand _review['reviews_text']), 15, '-
');

### and change with this : ###
$rand_review_text = tep_break_string(tep_output_string_protected($rand _review['reviews_text']), 15, '');

### save and close ###
in the admin/reviews.php

### find this : ###




### and change with this : ###




### save and close ###

I am not very sure what those changes mean, but they are working for me, and it fixes the problem so the text is not changing with symbols..
