This "advice" is the only advice that you got. :) It might be worthless, but it comes from PHP script developer who specializes in internationalization stuff and who had to make sure that his stuff works without any .htaccess modifications in environment thrashed by mbstring.func_overload. Setting mbstring internal encoding to 'pass' fixed string length evaluation issues in code which worked with random 8bit strings. Those random strings store encoded passwords and any data corruption would result authentication error. ereg and mail overrides were not tested, because code rarely uses ereg functions and does not use PHP mail(). Thanks to Dave for looking up the code I was referring too. -- Tomas
