(I have inspired by mysql module, so this > shouldn't be neccessary correct.) I personaly agree with your choice because I am using multibyte encoding (japanese) as my native language. But some other modules like ext/xml are using ISO-8859-1 as default encoding now. You can easily change these encoding settings using php.ini as follows, [iconv] iconv.internal_encoding = "UTF-8" iconv.output_encoding = "UTF-8" The iconv.input_encoding encoding has no meaning now. I have a plan to add encoding translation capability between input encoding and internal encoding in http input (POST/GET/Cookie) parser. -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Rui Hirokawa <louis@cityfujisawa.ne.jp> maintainer of japanese PHP manual <hirokawa@php.net>
