Advanced Poll 2.08

Post by sheldondsouza »

Hi Everyone,

I was successful in deploying Advanced poll to my server and been able to add it to .php pages. There seems to be a problem when i want to show a poll with arabic text. The values come in total junk characters.

Any idea how to solve this?

You need to change your charset.

You can read some about charsets here or you can search the php manual for more info. You might have a probem finding a charset for arabic in PHP but perhaps you can use something else to translate it over:

http://h4k.in/encoding/ <-- this may work for you thought
