Wrong charset convert

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have installed Apache 2.2.11 with PHP 5.2.8 on Windows XP SP3. Windows are using Windows-1250 charset (Czech localization). I want to install MediaWiki software which uses utf-8 charset.

When I upload a file with non-english characters in its name, then its name is saved in utf-8 format. When I try to open such file in web browser it sends 404 not found status.

Example:

Upload a file by using simple html upload form, which is encoded in utf-8:

<!-- this is only part of whole code --!>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
</head>
<body>

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" />
Choose a file to upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />

</form>
</body>
</html>

File named for example "složka.png" is saved to hard drive with name "sloĹľka.png" in Windows-1250 encoding. If that upload form was encoded with charset=Windows-1250 then it'll be right named "složka.png", but charset must be utf-8.

So suppose that we have server with uploaded file: http://something.com/složka.png. On linux it is working fine. But on Windows server you must use address like that: http://something.com/sloĹľka.png and that's not good for MediaWiki.

I don't know if it's understandably enough, I need set up Apache to ignore windows-1250 charset and use original utf-8 for decoding URL. httpd.conf is original (with php installation).

Thanks for help
