Greek Characters in PHP Parameters

[skepsis80]

Hi everybody,

 

I wrote a web service and I need to pass parameters through url in order to make a record in a mysql db. The problem is that when I insert greek characters in url it translates it to something like this http://xxxxxx.xx/test3.php?name=%CD%E9%EA%EF%F2&pass=234 and I got an error.

 

Does anybody have a suggestion? Please help because I search for this many hours and still nothing.

 

Thanks for your time

That URL looks correct. What error do you get?

Is "%CD%E9%EA%EF%F2" what you get in the database? You need to decode the URL-encoded URL.

Hi everybody, the error that Iget is

 

Not Acceptable

 

An appropriate representation of the requested resource /test3.php could not be found on this server.

For better understanding the code is something like this

 

<?php 
$user_id = $_GET['name'];
$pass = $_GET['pass'];


mysql_connect("localhost", "xxxx", "xxxxxxxx") or die(mysql_error()); 

// Connects to your Database 
mysql_select_db("database1") or die(mysql_error()); 
$query = "INSERT INTO test(name,password) VALUES('$user_id', '$pass')";
mysql_query($query); 

Print "ok"; 
?>
