note 26579 added to function.urlencode

Addendum: In Flash 6 there finally is a working method of passing special characters into a flash movie.In order to do this, the php file which generaes the output (an is adressen in flash via the "loadVariables" action) must be saved as an UTF-8 encoded file. By doing so, the file will gain an BOM and will be properly recognized as UTF8-encoded by the flash movie. Now all you need to do is something like echo "textvar=".urlencode(utf8_encode("lots of special chars: äöü...")); and that should work fine. another thing: Flash interprets both \r and \n as newline commands. Therefore ot will insert 2 line breaks whenever there is only one. i.e., nl2br($string) will NOT work properly. Better use a function that will replace "\n" values from your database with "<br />" rather than "<br />\r", as nl2br would do. Example: function nltobr($input) { $input=nl2br($input); $input=str_replace("\r","",$input); return $input; } -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.urlencode.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+26579 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+26579 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+26579
