ID: 20685 Updated by: moriyoshi@php.net Reported By: r.everhardt@home.nl -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: 4.2.1 New Comment: You can accomplish it with iconv() or mb_convert_encoding(). See http://www.php.net/iconv http://www.php.net/mb_convert_encoding Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-27 15:41:31] r.everhardt@home.nl How can I UTF-8 encode the euro symbol? New symbols like the Euro are not correctly encoded by the current utf8_encode function. ISO has issued a new standard: ISO-8859-15, which is mostly like ISO-8859-1 except that it removes some rarely used characters (the old currency sign) and replaced it with the Euro sign. The feature request: a function to utf-8 encode a string, that also encodes the euro symbol correctly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20685&edit=1
