Here's a tip for anyone using Flash and PHP for storing HTML output submitted from a Flash text field in a database or whatever. Flash submits its HTML special characters in UTF-8, so you can use the following function to convert those into HTML entity characters: function utf8html($utf8str) { return htmlentities(mb_convert_encoding($utf8str,"ISO-8859-1","UTF-8")); } ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mb-convert-encoding.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+56616 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56616&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56616&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56616&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56616&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56616&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56616&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+56616&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
