frizi Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 The answer is in the encoding. You have to unify everything into UTF8 (I thing it should contain also arabic chars). At each php file start with header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8");. This way if the server has different char. encoding, it will force the browser to display the text in UTF-8.
