I don't get what you mean :( there is no parameter to the urlencode php function, isn't it ? > encoding with "oe". google usualy uses UTF-8, that's why some single > characters are encoded in two bytes. I tried : echo "<html><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://www.google.fr/search?q=".utf8_encode($query)."\"></html>"; which acts the same, aka "%E9" and $query = utf8_encode($_POST["query"]); which is worse than ever :) it produces : %20t%C3%83%C6%92%C3%82%C2%A9 %-) can you clarify what you mean when you say "use the ie param" and "encoding with oe". sorry if those questions seems sily, but I'm not a heavy php coder ;) TIA, Jo -- ,-- This mail runs ---------. `-------- OpenBSD/sparc64 --' -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
