The old encoding problem in QuickZoom widget

[dgambin]

Hi,

Two years ago I had problem with Quick Zoom widget not showing dropdown elements because of the wrong encoding. The problem was with PHP5, in PHP4 it worked correctly. Now I have migrated my Chameleon site to a new machine with newer MS4W and the problem happens again.

I am using windows-1250 encoding. It doesn't help if I replace the "invalid" character by its html encoded value, such as è for example. Is there a solution for this now in PHP5?

thanks very much

regards, dejan

Hi,

I've never experienced this problem myself, but I'll do some test and
report back.

Julien,

Here is the link to the thread: http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/chameleon/2006-April/thread.html#3846

This seems to be a known problem with this function in PHP5. I didn't have any problem with it in PHP4. My html file (defining the QuickZoom) has windows-1250 encoding specified. I don't know how this function detects input encoding but the output one can't be set to windows-1250. So I am looking for a workaround...maybe using iconv?
