Something like like this: echo mb_detect_encoding($str, "SJIS, sjis-win"); Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-04-02 10:13:08] FrancS at seznam dot cz I look again on it and problem is with "᚝" in word with no other accent chars in it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-04-02 10:08:07] FrancS at seznam dot cz Description: ------------ Hi, today I discover a problem with mb function mb_detect_encoding().
