I've been trying to find the charset of a norwegian (with a lot of ø, æ, å) txt file written on a Mac, i've found it in this way: <?php $text = "A strange string to pass, maybe with some ø, æ, å characters."; foreach(mb_list_encodings() as $chr){ echo mb_convert_encoding($text, 'UTF-8', $chr)." : ".$chr."<br>"; } ?> The line that looks good, gives you the encoding it was written in. Hope can help someone --was-- I've been trying to find the charset of a norwegian (with a lot of ø, æ, å) txt file written on a Mac, i've found it in this way: $text = "A strange string to pass, maybe with some ø, æ, å characters."; foreach(mb_list_encodings() as $chr){ echo mb_convert_encoding($text, 'UTF-8', $chr)." : ".$chr."<br>"; } The line that looks good, gives you the encoding it was written in.
