Parameter name: name My idea is to parse some file client side and then uplo...

Because of this, I would like to switch to using UTF-8. What issues do you see coming from this? I know I would have to search the site to look for ch...
I have a small web form which will cause a PHP script to send a receipt upon clicking the submit button, by an HTML mail. This mail contains special characters, namely 'å', 'ä' and 'ö'. Whatever I try, I can't get these characters to display properly everywhere. In some email clients, these characters show up just fine, whereas in others...
I am switching to Netbeans for php programming (I currently use gedit). Some characters from the original source code ( à, á, é, è, etc.) are not shown in Netbeans, regardless of the fount used, and a little quotation mark is shown instead. Those files are shown perfectly in both gedit and firefox. If I modify the file in Netbeans, cha...

The upshot of this is that I'm trying to deal with strings that think they're utf-8, but really aren't. (If you care, here are the files I was using to test this: main ...
I need to perform a conversion of characters from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 in Java without losing for example all of the UTF-8 specific punctuation. Ideally would like these to be converted to equivalents in ISO (e.g. there are probably 5 different single quotes in UTF-8 and would like them all converted to ISO single quote character). Str...
