note 71717 added to ref.curl

This really bugged me for a long time... I have created a curl class, that I use every day - unfortunately some people just won't stay within the standards, so sometimes I get some HTML with lots of weird characters, that were supposed to be ie. ø... but looks all weird! curl doesn't support encoding, but I've found, that this is what is needed to convert those annoying characters: Instead of the real character, you get 2 - the first is chr 195 and the other is the orginal character - 64 ~ (chr(2nd char)+64) = the original, intended character! Hope this helps some-one or more! :-) Heres a function that takes care of thos annoying chars: function charset_fix($TheString) { if(preg_match('/('.chr(195).')(.)/', $TheString, $match)) { $TheString = preg_replace('/'.chr(195).$match[2].'/', chr(ord($match[2])+64), $TheString); } return $TheString; } ---- Server IP: 195.184.96.15 Probable Submitter: 87.49.114.39 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.curl.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/71717 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71717/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71717/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71717/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71717/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71717/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71717/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71717 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/71717 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
