Re: Page encoding

No, I copypasted as it is, only chaged the charset. But if I comment it out I get garbage. Now that I checked the headers apache sends I see why it it's so: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2003 23:21:58 GMT Server: Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.28 (Mandrake Linux/3mdk) PHP/4.3.3 X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.3 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 header content-type takes precedence before meta.

Have You commented out Header() function? Marek Kilimajer wrote:

Please reply to the list, your chance of getting answer will increase. Use reply all button if Netscape/7.02 has it. I tried you example, except that my editor saved the page in unicode, so I had to change windows-1251 to utf-8. Then it displayed correctly. Cheba wrote:

Ok. Try Yourself. <?php Header('Content-type: text/html; charset=windows-1251'); echo ' <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251"> </head> <body> Русский Українська </body> </html>'; ?> You shold have Cyrillic fonts to see difference. Comment out line 3 (the Header() function). Marek Kilimajer wrote:

That was the first mistake I noticed, now I see it was completely wrong, it should be: <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251">
