Problems in characters of non-English language
Posted: Wed May 26, 2004 4:43 am
Hello all,
When reading a file contents(html or any) using PHP how are we suppose to process the characters that are not in English alphabet?
Unfortunatly this message editor of PHPBB is converting all non English character to ? but i have tried to give a example below.
For example in Wspólnie pa?dziernika (i think its Polish), characters like ó,? are treated as ?(was suppose to be a square rather that a ?) when PHP is used to read them from a file. Is there a simple fix for it?
I hope I have made myself clear.
Thanks
