Hi
If you are referring to your application by publishing id (473096) it is not accessible by ordinary user. So cannot check even understand your problem. You need to describe your problem clearer. Specify the application platform as well.
Re: Arabic links not working in my Nokia App
It is the the publish ID which is on my dashboard in nokiaappwizard.com
When the normal user click on (see original story) on my Nokia phone app. , it redirects to 404 not found pages while these pages are accessible normally on the web.
I have another app. which redirects to English links and works great, but this app. redirects to the Arabic part of my website and leads to Arabic links but the app. can't recognize these Arabic links and leads to 404 pages on my website after clicking on See original story.

Hello
yes i got your problem. I need to learn more about nokiaappwizard.com perhaps there are some limitations. Does non-working url contains symbols that has to be URI encoded and perhaps Wizard does it incorrectly on does not encode at all? Could you share the broken link.

Igor
Re: Arabic links not working in my Nokia App
The non-working links contains Arabic letters.
Here is an example for one of the non-working links:
[url]http://www.smscafe.net/sms-portal/ar/2012/07/%D8%A8%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%81%D9%88-%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%89/[/url]
BUT when the user click on (see original story) from the app. , it always leads to that link:
[url]http://www.smscafe.net/sms-portal/ar/2012/07/%01%01%01%01%01%[/url]
which leads to 404 not found page.
Please I am waiting for your help in that issue.
Thanks.

Hi
Try to instrument your feed with [URL="http://feedburner.google.com"]http://feedburner.google.com[/URL] and provide the result link to the application wizard ---
When you will go to feedburner and start the master you will be offered to select a feed that is available from your site and that will be instrumented with feedburner.
the result link will look like [URL="http://feeds.feedburner.com/sms-portal-ar"]http://feeds.feedburner.com/sms-portal-ar[/URL]. Try to use that in [url]http://nokiaappwizard.com[/url]. That should work.
NOTE: Purpose of FeedBurner's services is to allow publishers who already have a feed to improve their understanding of and relationship with their audience. Even if you don't need FeedBurner services, I think it helps in your case because FeedBurner alters the original URL that you have trouble with.

Hi,
I have made that from 5 days, I have put [url]http://feeds.feedburner.com/sms-portal-ar[/url] as my web content feed BUT the same problem still exist.
Re: Arabic links not working in my Nokia App
Hello
That means the real application on device behaves differently than on web simulator. The only solution i can suggest is to have a url without national letters. That will definitely fix the problem. Is it possible to make different url for your content location by changing your server settings? If you own the server then there is no problem to do so i think.
