Hi, Excuse me, I've answer to quick. I added the line "AddDefaultCharset UTF-8" at the end of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, while this line already exists in that file, with the same parameter. I replace "UTF-8" by "ISO-8859-1" and now it runs well ! (while I have to set my terminal charset to UTF-8 to edit the php files) Thank you very much for your help Have a nice week-end.
