Answer 1

A:

have you tryed switching the places of the functions?

$jsonrequest=uft8_encode(json_encode($request));

utf8_encode only encodes strings not arrays

Answer 2

A:

I also use both ZF and utf-8 encoded strings in AJAX calls and I think that the uft8_encode and utf8_decode functions should be obsolete.

Do you have a valid meta tag

and a valid doctype

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

?

Answer 3

+1 A:

You convert the initial request to UTF-8, so I assume it's something else. But when you send the data back, you do not convert it back to the original encoding.

Are you sure you send the data in the encoding expected by the server?

Answer 4

A:

The JSON response I get from the server has special characters in it. So, I use the following statement to convert it to UTF8,decode the JSON and use it as an array to display to the UI.

JSON data already comes encoded in UTF-8. You shouldn't convert it to UTF-8 again; you'll corrupt the data.

Instead of this:

$response = json_decode(utf8_encode($jsonresponse));

You should have this:

$response = json_decode($jsonresponse); //already UTF-8!
