I don't know if this is a specific ajax problem or if it's just Internet Explorer. I'm working on an ajax live search function ( i followed the guide here http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_ajax_livesearch.asp). I'm converting an excel-file to XML.

When I fill in the form with the letters å, ä, ö (Swedish) in internet explorer I get no hits. In any other browsers it works fine.

 

I have defined UTF-8 in all the browsers, tested ISO-8859-1 (recommended Swedish) and even tried combining them. Nothing works...

Any ideas?

 

Example:

http://mindu.mine.nu/amazing_solutions/XLStoXML/search.html

 

XML-file:

http://mindu.mine.nu/amazing_solutions/XLStoXML/Varderingar.xml

 

XLS To XML

<?php 
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
require_once('/var/www/amazing_solutions/XLStoXML/reader.php');

$data = new Spreadsheet_Excel_Reader();
$data->setUTFEncoder('iconv');
$data->setOutputEncoding('CP-1251'); 

// Read in excel file
$data->read('/var/www/amazing_solutions/XLStoXML/Varderingar.xls');

//Count XLS-data rows

// Get first sheet
$sheet = $data->sheets[0];
// Get all rows in the sheet
$rows = $sheet['cells'];

// Find total number of rows
$rowCount = count($rows);

/*
// Show data from last row
echo "<table><tr>";
foreach($rows[$rowCount -1] as $col) {
echo "<td>$col</td>";
}
echo "</tr></table>";
*/


//Skips the two first rows (Data begins at row 3)
$rowCount=$rowCount-2;

echo "Antalet rader data i excel-filen (Data börjar i rad 3): ".$rowCount."";
  

// End of count XLS-data rows

$myFile = "Varderingar.xml";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("$myFile gick inte att hitta");


$stringData = "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>\n<pages>\n"; 
fwrite($fh, $stringData);

//Import XLS-data to XML-file in right format

$loop_count = 0;

//Data begins in row 3
$row_start_count = 3; 

$search  = array('&');
$replace = array('&'); 

//title = Kolumn A, URL = ISIN.htm
while($loop_count!=$rowCount){

$stringData = "<link>\n<namn>".str_replace($search, $replace, $data->sheets[0]['cells'][$row_start_count][1])."</namn>\n<url>".$data->sheets[0]['cells'][$row_start_count][5].".htm</url>\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);

$stringData = "<dagskurs>".$data->sheets[0]['cells'][$row_start_count][2]."</dagskurs>\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);

$stringData = "<langsiktigtvarde>".$data->sheets[0]['cells'][$row_start_count][3]."</langsiktigtvarde>\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);

$stringData = "<index>".$data->sheets[0]['cells'][$row_start_count][4]."</index>\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);

$stringData = "<isin>".$data->sheets[0]['cells'][$row_start_count][5]."</isin></link>\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);

$loop_count++;
$row_start_count++;

}


// End of import XLS-data to XML-file


$stringData = "</pages>";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);



fclose($fh);
