Problem with accents

HelloPaul
I have a problemwithaccents intwoplaces in thescript.
1 -Adding asecond categoryinthe additionor modificationof a link 2-Quick search of titleof a linkand also in theadvanced search.Allresearch hasthe problemofaccents.
I installedin English andItranslatedt he filedefault.lng into French, Idid not needthe English versionbecause mysite isin French only. Alltemplatesare alsotranslated into French.
What isstrange isthat the other partiesoperate withouterror withaccents.
The problem isonly in the2ndcolumn of theselection ofasecondary category,the main categorywill be displayednormally.
All the researchalso have thisproblem, thecollationof thedatabase issooriginalutf8_unicode_ci
I tested an english-only site and didn't have the accents problem on autocomplete, so that wasn't the issue. Maybe the database tables aren't utf-8 and require conversion, but there should be a notice saying so if that were the case. Checking.
It looks like the accented characters fail whenever the charset header isn't set. It was set in end.php, but some files like the autocomplete don't use end.php, so I've moved it to includes/prestart.php. Is everything correct now?

Hello Paul
I have a problem with accents in two places in the script.
1 - Adding a second category in the addition or modification of a link
2 - Quick search of title of a link and also in the advanced search. All research has the problem of accents.

Thank you in advance.
Cordially.

This is probably because you've got an english-only installation. Is there a reason you didn't do multilingual?

What is strange is that the other parties operate without error with accents.
The problem is only in the 2nd column of the selection of a secondary category, the main category will be displayed normally.
All the research also have this problem, the collation of the database is so original utf8_unicode_ci
