Hi,
I ran a test using words with accents and some of them dont return any
data (when the keyword tool does).
café, language: spanish, country: spain returns nothing for the last
12 months using the API.
using the web keyword tool it returns 135,000 for last month.
something i noticed from the returned xml is that the top part shows
the word with the accent
<ns2:keywords>
<ns1:text>café</ns1:text>
<ns1:matchType>BROAD</ns1:matchType>
</ns2:keywords>
but the bottom part shows the word encoded, not sure if that means
anything
<ns2:value>
<Criterion.Type>Keyword</Criterion.Type>
<text>café</text>
<matchType>BROAD</matchType>
</ns2:value>
the word caffè (notice the different accent) does return values. all
countries all languages.
