ID: 32497 User updated by: mschering at intermesh dot nl Reported By: mschering at intermesh dot nl Status: Open Bug Type: ICONV related Operating System: Linux 2.6 PHP Version: 4.3.10 New Comment: I discovered that the following ascii characters go bad with iconv (Maybe more but these I found). 133, 146, 147, 148 I now workaround like this: $str = str_replace(chr(133), ".", $str); $str = str_replace(chr(146), "'", $str); $str = str_replace(chr(147), '"', $str); $str = str_replace(chr(148), '"', $str); Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-30 08:58:29] mschering at intermesh dot nl Description: ------------ When I convert an iso-8859-1 text that contains quotes (The mail message I tested was composed with Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000) They get converted to an character that displays as a cubic character so it doesn't exists. Don't know if it's relevant but before using quoted_printable_decode() one of the characters that is diplayed wrong is written as =92 Reproduce code: --------------- Compose a mail message with outlook express in iso-8859-1 encoding and put some ' and " in it. Convert that with iconv and you'll see unexpected results. Expected result: ---------------- I expect the text to be the same as when I view it in iso-8859-1 encoding. Actual result: -------------- Strange characters in the converted text. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32497&edit=1
