note 111603 added to function.rename

on windows (XP, vista, 7...) http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1252", if your file name contains accent, it doesn't work basically. So use iconv function to convert from utf-8 to cp1252 as bellow : <?php $nomfichierinitial=iconv("UTF-8", "CP1252", "C:\\wamp\\www\\tést.txt"); $nomfichierfinal="C:\\wamp\\www\\test.txt"; rename($nomfichierinitial, $nomfichierfinal); ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 134.158.82.37 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.rename.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/111603 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111603/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111603/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111603/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111603/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111603/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111603/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111603 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/111603 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
