ASCII special characters

[Topshed]

Hi,

 

I am running PHP5.0.41 and MySQL 4.1.15

 

A problem has arisen  when I want to put the ascii code for _1/2 or _1/4 , when I am editing my database on line.I thought I could use

 ½

 

but ½ is what comes up on screen rather than _1/2 it should be

 

I suspect I may not be escaping properly or it cannot be done with this combination of software >>

 

Please Help

 

Thanks Roy..

I believe you check the output of your code and look for ½  with in a string using str_replace and if it is there replace it with

$letter = chr(171);

$letter = chr(172);
