Hi to all,

I just reinstalled one of our servers last week, and I am noticing a wierd
problem.
On the old one was php4 running. Suse 9.1 OS. Everything worked very well.

On the new one Suse 10. Php5.

Only with firefox (sometimes and not always!!!!) and only on some computers
the umlauts öäüüü characters are not displayed correctly and they are not
submitted correctly to the system. Since then we have some strange problems
with our application.

Example:
S�dbrookmerland instead of Südbrookmerland


It seems like an encoding problem, but I really didn't figure it out untill
now.

Any ideeas???

Best Regards,
Andy.


This looks like a problem with your encoding.

Have you added this to your HTML header?

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

Do you get the Text out of the database?

How is it encoded?

Also you can use recode() to recode a string.
