(1) $a = mb_convert_encoding($a, 'UTF-8','SJIS'); (2) $a = mb_convert_encoding($a, 'HTML-ENTITIES','UTF -8'); Assuming you got correct result from example (1), you seem to be converting a sequence of SJIS-encoded data into HTML-ENTITIES while setting the source encoding to "UTF-8" in example (2), which will never produce correct result. It may be a bit too late to say, though... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-02 18:08:09] ross at golder dot org This sounds like a duplicate of : http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25670 I'm still struggling with this one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-31 12:49:04] atlantisboy at yougotmail dot com I really don't why noone consider this bug ??? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-31 12:41:17] johnmcklein at hotmail dot com I also face this problem , how to fix it ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
