Re: Problem with Greek characters in PHP

Hi Guys, now I've moved onto trying out the mbstring functions, I've come across mb_internal_encoding("UTF-8"). What is the difference between this and ini_set('default_charset', 'UTF-8')? Or is it just another way of achieving the same thing? Is one preferable?

Sorry for all these questions, but does the internal encoding refer to the encoding that is used within the actual script, as apposed to say the encoding that is used in the html?
Thanks,
Tim.
