These two functions have worked very well for me: <?php function utf8_safe_decode($input) { if ( ! is_string ( $input ) ) return $input; $conv = utf8_decode($input); return ( substr_count($conv, '?') > substr_count($input, '?') ) ? $input : $conv ; } function utf8_safe_encode($input) { if ( ! is_string ($input ) ) return $input; $conv = utf8_decode($input); // if input can be decoded without error, it is already utf-8 return ( substr_count($conv, '?') == substr_count($input, '?') ) ? $input : utf8_encode($input) ; } ?> ---- Server IP: 66.163.161.117 Probable Submitter: 84.188.228.63 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.utf8-encode.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/64919 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64919/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64919/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64919/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64919/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64919/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64919/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64919 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/64919 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
