#32575 [NEW]: Accented character 'echo'ed randomly

From: john at jcoppens dot com Operating system: linux 2.4.26 PHP version: 4.3.10 PHP Bug Type: *Languages/Translation Bug description: Accented character 'echo'ed randomly Description: ------------ I have a very simple web-page script with mainly 'echo' commands. Randomly the accented characters are replaced by question-marks. If or not the question mark appears seems to be depending on the page contents, though at least in one of the cases, the only thing that changes in the page is a GIF image. All this happens in the same html-session, using the same script. I've seen other -similar- reports, though none about 'echo'. I can't be sure if this is an apache problem or php-related. Sorry if was already solved... Please indicate. Reproduce code: --------------- echo "Página Índice"; Expected result: ---------------- Página Índice Actual result: -------------- Randomly Página Índice P?gina ?ndice -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32575&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32575&r=mysqlcfg
