PHP passes this stuff straight through. I had faced similar problem with Turkish characters. Though I used proper charset entry in the HEAD section, browser could not display Turkish characters correctly, unless I refresh (without reloading) the page. I solved the problem by using header() function to set proper charset entry. I was almost sure that it is relevant with PHP, because this symtom occurs only in php pages, not in html pages. > > -Rasmus > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
