PHP 4.0 Bug #8669: Swedish characters in session-variables can appear differently

From: peo@egenweb.com Operating system: Linux version 2.2.14C10 (Cobalt RaQ3) PHP version: 4.0.3pl1 PHP Bug Type: *Session related Bug description: Swedish characters in session-variables can appear differently Session variables containing åäö on a systems not supporting these characters can change when saved to /tmp folder. While they are in memory they are perfectly Ok. It appears that some function is using a shell-call or something to read the contents of the stored session-variables instead of using a normal read. At least this is my interpretation of the error. Input is taken from <input> -fields and output is generated like <input value="<?=$sessionvariable?>"> Regards Per-Olof Pettersson -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8669&edit=1
