how comes urlencode generates "%E9" and google generates "%C3%A9" ?
is google using some specific encoding ? any tweak to encode "the google
way" ?
you can specify your encoding to google using "ie" parameter. and output
hum... 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 ;)
I meant get parameters to google:
http://www.google.com/search?q=help&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
you need to change ie parameter ----^^ to whatever encoding you are using.
