I'm certainly not going to be that defensive and write my code to deal with such situations. If someone POSTs or GETs something not in UTF-8 from outside my site, and I can't deal with it, it's their problem, not mine. And with PHP being the solid platform it is, it wouldn't dream of taking down my server just because I get KOI8-R when I expected UTF-8 :-) /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
