note 104325 added to function.fopen

While opening a file with multibyte data (Ex: données multi-octets), faced some issues with the encoding. Got to know that it uses windows-1250. Used iconv to convert it to UTF-8 and it resolved the issue. function utf8_fopen_read($fileName) { $fc = iconv('windows-1250', 'utf-8', file_get_contents($fileName)); $handle=fopen("php://memory", "rw"); fwrite($handle, $fc); fseek($handle, 0); return $handle; } Example usage: $fh = utf8_fopen_read("./tpKpiBundle.csv"); while (($data = fgetcsv($fh, 1000, ",")) !== false) { foreach ($data as $value) { echo $value . "<br />\n"; } } Hope it helps. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 61.246.62.41 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/104325 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104325/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104325/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104325/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104325/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104325/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104325/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104325 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/104325 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
