Re: Email screwing my swedish characters

Hello, on 06/27/2005 11:44 PM Ryan A said the following:

Having a bit of a problem, I've just completed a project for a Swedish company, when someone joins the site they get a welcome letter, but unfortunatly in

the welcome letter the Swedish characters ÖÅÄ and öåä are getting replaced with a "?" (without

quotes) Any idea whats wrong and how I can make it good?

You cannot send messages with 8 bit characters. To send your message you need to encode the body using quoted-printable encoding. You may want to take a look at this class for composing and sending messages that can encode the message properly for you . It comes with an example that sends messages with letters with accents. http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.html
