Hi Gurus, I am using PHP4 on linux. I am reading the filename from querystring and display it in the browser. Before displaying , I am checking the existance of the file by using file_exists. If the file name contains japanese characters, such as 百人一首.pdf or てす と.txt, file_exists returns false, though the file exists at that location. Why ? I have compiled PHP with japanese support. Can anybody help me ? Thanking you in anticipation. Regards, Umesh.
