Re: Mail () problem with some letters

This function exists on the history of this list. You should check it. I haven't tried before, but it should work. function encodemymail($txt) { for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($txt); $i++) { $ent .= "&#" . ord(substr($txt, $i, 1)) . ";"; } return($ent); } echo encodemymail('ä ü ö [ ]'); Read (I'm getting used to send this address): ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2045.txt Read this too: ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc1345.txt Mario Soto mario_s@amigo.net.gt -.-.-.- ----- Original Message ----- From: "websteve" <websteve@web.de> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Sunday, April 27, 2003 6:50 PM Subject: [PHP] Mail () problem with some letters Hi! I have a small problem with my forms. I send it through the mail function $text = $firstname." ".$lastname." ."Firstname ".$firstname."\nLastname: ".$lastname."\...... and so on; mail("mail@mailadress.com","Contactform by $firstname $lastname",$text); When the user has sent the form everything works well and I receive all my informations. But only letters like 'ö' or 'ü' or 'ä' and some more were not displayed correctly. Ie. Instead of 'ö' my mailprogram shows me &#246; What do I have to do to send the form correctly. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
