Probably using £ symbol in code
Posted: Fri Aug 19, 2005 10:23 am
Hi
This should be easy. I have a script where I am trying to print the £ symbol. Whenever my browser displays this it puts  before the £.
Does anyone know why this is happening?

Code: Select all
<?php
include "config.php";
$table = "tblBooks";
// connect to the mysql server
$link = mysql_connect($server, $db_user, $db_pass)
or die ("Could not connect to mysql because ".mysql_error());
// select the database
mysql_select_db($database)
or die ("Could not select database because ".mysql_error());
// read data from database
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $table")
or die ("Could not read data because ".mysql_error());
// print the data in a table
if (mysql_num_rows($result)) {
print "<html><body>";
while ($qry = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
print "<table cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0 border=0 width=\"100%\">";
print "<br>";
print "<tr><td>$qry[strAuthor]</td></tr>";
print "<tr><td>$qry[strTitle]</td></tr>";
print "<tr><td>$qry[strDescription]</td></tr>";
print "<tr><td>$qry[strAnnotation]</td></tr>";
print "<tr><td> £ $qry[dPrice]</td></tr>";
print "</table>";
print "</html></body>";
}
}
mysql_close();
