Now, I think it is a text editor problem......
My text editor, BBedit, is set to utf8 encoding .
When I set encoding to utf-8, php outputs a blank screen...
If I set BBedit to Unix with Mac-Roman encoding, the php script
executes but screws up the Polish language
Regardless, the php script looks fine within BBedit regardless of the
text encode value...
If I use a Simple/Free Text editor:
If I copy the BBedit text into a simple/free text editor, and then
copy/paste this text to the original php script on the server...
everything renders properly....no problems at all
anyone know what this could be ?

First of all, I believe imagettftext() accepts string in the UTF-8
encoding. SO, the first thing to try would be to convert to UTF-8l
mb_convert_encoding($text, 'UTF-8','iso-8859-2');
And, if that doesn't work. Ensure the font you're specifying can
handle the characters you're giving it. (Arial Unicode would probably
be a safe test font)
hope this helped.

How can I get Polish , iso-8859-2, text, to output properly ?
PHP is reading the accent characters as blocks
I tried this, but it did not work...
// Set up text for a 'Polish' button
$text = "rozwiązania";
$text = mb_convert_encoding($text, "iso-8859-2","Auto");
// Composit the text over a button image and output it
imagettftext($im, $fontSize, 0, 11, 16, $white, $font, $text);
Ultimately, I want to pass a $language variable to the script to get
it to output to any number of supported languages
is there a simple function that does this ?
many thanks in advance :)
