Scooby08 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I am pulling information from an XML file that is ISO-8859-1 encoded and then am inserting that info into a database.. My script is UTF-8 encoded.. The sql has this CHARSET=utf8.. The XML file has some info like so: 4½ And after inserted into the database it's like so: 4½ Just wondering if there's some way I can take care of those so that when they are inserted into the database it doesn't have that funky character in it.. I also have no control over the charset if the XML file.. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/190263-question-on-character-encoding/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
