Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47187&edit=1 ID: 47187 Comment by: mail2010 at marc-richter dot info Reported by: antonius dot suryatenggara at aus dot fujixerox dot com Summary: mbstring.func_overload in .htaccess has no effect Status: Closed Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: Windows Server 2003 Standard PHP Version: 5.2.8 Block user comment: N New Comment: LOL ! ! ! ! ! I've not found this anywhere on the net, but I figured it out by try and error ;D I think I've found the solution for everyone who has the problem to set different "mbstring.func_overload" - settings in different dirs: Don't use php_value for setting this within your vhost - file: Simply use php_admin_value - this works! :D But be aware of the fact that this cannot be used within a .htaccess - file. You have to insert s.th. like: "php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 7" inside your vhost - Files (between the <Directory></Directory> Area for example). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-09-07 11:55:21] mail2010 at marc-richter dot info Sorry, I don't get it. Does this mean that a "fix" has issued the behavior that one cannot set the mbstring.* - options somewhere else than in the global php.ini - file(s) anymore and this will stay this way, because it's wanted behavior? I don't understand how to deal with this then, since there are several Applications out there which _require_ this to be set to 7 (eGroupware www.egroupware.org for example), since others require this to be disabled (like phpmyadmin www.phpmyadmin.net for example). How should one deal with this? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-01-07 11:23:44] kalle@php.net This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources.

May be it wrong... but it's work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-04-20 07:59:26] andre dot huebner at gmx dot de will this feature be available again in future versions of php or by patch? if not the documentation should be changed cause it still shows the old behaviour.
