note 50767 added to ref.gettext

I use gettext to translate my homepage (php 5.0.2, apache 1.3.33, mysql 4.1). I want to use bind_textdomain_codeset to encode the messages returned by gettext to ISO-8859-1. But bind_textdomain_codeset does not work (it returns always in UTF-8). I've downloaded gettext (version 0.14.2) from ftp.gnu.org. I've read in a newsgroup that it is necessacy to configure php with libiconv. So I've downloaded also libiconv (version 1.9.1) from ftp.gnu.org but bind_textdomain_codeset does still return UTF-8. My configure call is: ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/php \ --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \ --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \ --with-gettext=/usr/local/gettext \ --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local/freetype \ --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local/libiconv Do I need any more packages in install to get bind_textdomain_codeset to work? I use SUSE Linux 9.1, are there any settings I must do? My bindtextdomain function call is setlocale(LC_MESSAGES, $Language.".ISO-8859-1"); bindtextdomain($domain, $binding); textdomain($domain); bind_textdomain_codeset($domain, 'ISO-8859-1'); ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.gettext.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+50767 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50767&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50767&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50767&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50767&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50767&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+50767&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
