It looks like I found the solution myself. To my great surprise, the order of 'extension' lines in php.ini seems to be significant. As those of you who use FreeBSD might know, if you install PHP and a choice of extensions from ports, then extensions are described in separate file /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini. I moved the line describing 'iconv.so' to the first line in this file, and the test script quoted above started working as expected. -- Toomas Aas -------------------------------------------------------- |arvutivõrgu peaspetsialist | head specialist on computer networks| |Tartu Linnakantselei | Tartu City Office | ----------------------------------------------------- +372 736 1274
