Thread-topic: utf8 encoding £ to Â£ problem

Hi 

 

I was just wondering if anyone knows why php's utf8_encode function converts the £ symbol into Â£

 

Is this a bug in php or is it because utf8 doesn't include the £ symbol (can't find a quick and easy ref to say if it does or not) and as such the function outputs junk?

 

 

Kind Regards

 

Chris Dean
