note 31791 modified in function.convert-cyr-string by vrana

previous bit of code (grmaxim's win_to_utf8 function) didn't work for me, so I wrote my own func to convert from win1251 to utf8: <?php function win2utf($s) { for($i=0,$m=strlen($s);$i<$m;$i++) { $c=ord($s[$i]); if ($c>127) // convert only special chars if ($c==184) $t.=chr(209).chr(209); // small io elseif ($c==168) $t.=chr(208).chr(129); // capital io else $t.=($c>239?chr(209):chr(208)).chr($c-48); else $t.=$s[$i]; } return $t; } ?> Hope this helps --was-- previous bit of code (grmaxim's win_to_utf8 function) didn't work for me, so I wrote my own func to convert from win1251 to utf8: function win2utf($s) { for($i=0,$m=strlen($s);$i<$m;$i++) { $c=ord($s[$i]); if ($c>127) // convert only special chars if ($c==184) $t.=chr(209).chr(209); // small io elseif ($c==168) $t.=chr(208).chr(129); // capital io else $t.=($c>239?chr(209):chr(208)).chr($c-48); else $t.=$s[$i]; } return $t; } Hope this helps http://php.net/manual/en/function.convert-cyr-string.php
