Re[3]: utf-8 in mysql but not outputting as utf-8 on web

Hello Jonathan,

You probably don't have php5 compiled with mbstrings enabled, if you have complied php5 with iconv instead you can try

iconv('utf-8' , 'html', $string);

I don't know what to recommend if you don't have any of these complied into php5.

Best regards,
Kenneth

thanks, never used this function. the weird thing is that it's throwing a fatal error saying mb_convert_encoding is undefined. I'm running 5.0.4.

hmmmm.....



Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mb_convert_encoding() in / home/arclocal/public_html/preview/Inc/menu.class.php on line 1563

Hello,

why not simply convert the text to html

mb_convert_encoding($string, 'html', 'utf-8');


Best regards,
Kenneth

I'm inserting some info into a mysql table which has the charset set to utf-8.

When I do a select via the command-line from mysql, it looks like this:
Clams and mussels with Dijon-crème fraîche-saffron sauce

assuming this is coming out in your email client ok, it should look good.

On a web page, I set the charset to utf-8 via:
header("Content-type: text/html; encoding: UTF-8");
as the top-line

I then do a select for this field and it outputs like this in the browser:
Clams and mussels with Dijon-crème fraîche-saffron sauce

I'm familiar with html encoding. As this is going to go to XML, I wanted to see if I could keep it in the native format. Am I doing something wrong on the web side why I won't display this correctly? Is there some Apache config I need to be aware of?

thanks,

jonathan
