Hi Graziano, At 10:42 04.01.2006, you wrote:
I need to set the default charset for my application to UTF-8 instead of the default one of the webserver that is ISO-8859-1. I've tried to change the value of default_charset in php.ini and all it's ok, but I need to set the value only for one application so I've tried to use the ini_set function in this way: ini_set('default_charset','utf-8'); The problem is that that the ini_set function seems to be ignored, I don't have the same effect of changing the php.ini configuration file, with the ini_set function the default charset of the output is still ISO-8859-1.
create a .htaccess file in the application directory where you use the "php_value" command to set this variable. See http://www.php.net/php_value The problem is that changing the charset in the script is too late (it is running so it cannot be changed anymore). ----- Uwe Schindler thetaphi@php.net - http://www.php.net NSAPI SAPI developer Bremen, Germany
