Re: Re: umlaut problem in firefox

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> This is in the header. If I look at page info in firefox I get: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1. So the setted encoding is correct. The problem that I noticed is that the umlauts are displayed correctly but when I submit them in the POST or GET array I receive them modified. This happens on 2 different servers. The same behavior. Apache2 + php5. With php4 I didn't have this problem. The really stupid thing is.... that.... sometimes works well.

My problem still remains open!!!! Help!!! I noticed that if the umlauts are received correctly but they are not submitted in the right way. For a ö I receive a POST as: ö From the DB I get the text correctly. <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> The DB encoding is : iso-8859-1. Now, the strange thing is that is does not appear ALWAYS and only sometimes and only in firefox. So.. I cannot really reproduce the error every time.... which is hard to debug.

-snip- POST as: ö -snap- This is Unicode UTF-8 encoding. If this error occours again check the following: added tag in HTML: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> If this is set check if the browser is set correctly: View -> charencoding/websitencoding Check if it is set to Western ISO 8859-1 check how it is given out in the sourcecode. check if there are entries which have an other kollation than the other entries. This is what i can think of. -- Smileys rule (cX.x)C --o(^_^o) Dance for me! ^(^_^)o (o^_^)o o(^_^)^ o(^_^o) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
