Hi all, I wish to take advantage of something like recode(), but my main ISP doesn't support the function. I'm only concerned with one or two character sets (like ISO-8859-1), so full support of what recode() is capable of is not so important. htmlspecialchars() mentions that it deals with character sets, but I think it references the INPUT charset, not the OUTPUT charset -- correct? I thought maybe I could use it as a cheats way in, then just convert the chars back :) Justin
