Mchl Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 These characters are not encoded in UTF8. Check your encoding. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/190103-polish-characters/#findComment-1002991 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrooN Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Hmm... I think you'll need to use the "iso-8859-2" charset Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/190103-polish-characters/#findComment-1003105 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Hmm... I think you'll need to use the "iso-8859-2" charset Nope. No need to stick with archaic non-standards. UTF8 works fine for Polish as long as you make sure everything from database to final output uses it.

Mchl Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 No. He just needs to take care he uses proper encoding everywhere (and also proper tools that recognize this encoding). HTML codes != UTF8.

jkkenzie Posted January 29, 2010 Author Share Posted January 29, 2010 :'( I used UTF 8 and the Charset ISO but work only my local computer. I had to go online and get the encoding for characters like ż and the like. But not many characters though Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/190103-polish-characters/#findComment-1003484 Share on other sites More sharing options...
oni-kun Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 :'( I used UTF 8 and the Charset ISO but work only my local computer. I had to go online and get the encoding for characters like ż and the like. But not many characters though If you get the replacement character (IE � ) then try running utf8_encode along with the UTF8 encoding headers. $message = 'ąĄćĆęĘŃńŁłóÓŚśŹźż'; echo utf8_encode($message); And it will work (theorietically) no matter what, as long as you define UTF-8 in the meta tags.

haku Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Make sure the document is saved in UTF-8 encoding. If you are using Dreamweaver, it will tell you the current encoding of the document on the bottom right of the code pane. I can't speak for other editors. But the document itself has to be UTF-8 for non-English characters to display properly.

Also note to not include the BOM (byte order mark) if the option is there, as it could cause incompatabilities with the script.
