hello
does php have any built-in functions to convert post data from
whatever format it arrives in to whatever format i wish?
example:
i use iso-8859-1 internally, and even specify
accept-charset=iso-8859-1 in my html, but some browsers (phones) send
utf-8 anyway.
do i have to manually check if CONTENT_TYPE says "utf-8" and then
convert the $_POST array elements one by one, or does php have any
built-in functions to ease this?
