Posting Russian Text to PHP form converted to html entities?
Posted: Fri Oct 01, 2010 7:02 am
Hi,
I have a web based application, written in PHP, with a MySQL back-end.
I have a HTML form which submits content to PHP which in turn then saves it to the database.
I am having a problem passing in russian text... e.g. Нет но идея свою. Во них быть продукт, они ты сраз...
as soon as it is posted to the form, and hits the _REQUEST variable, it is all converted in to HTML entities e.g. "Нет но идея свою. Во ни&#....."
Any idea how I can change this behaviour so that it actually posts the russian characters??
thanks,
Phil
