No, that's what kind of content the server is willing to accept from various sources such as POST. You want the following somewhere near the beginning of your script: <?php header( 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' ); ?> Cheers, Rob. --------------------------------------------------------- Thanks again, but as far as I have read, it seems that UTF-8 has better handling for French characters? We have the following in our HTML page: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" > Would the header not conflict with this meta tag?
