Help with Encoding on Generated Form

[imperium2335]

Hi,

 

I am trying to get some charecters to display properly in emails that are sent via a form on my site.

 

The finnish characters ä and ö come out as squares when viewed in Outlook. I have tried various encoding types such as UTF-8 and Western European (dreamweaver), both as the script encoding and as the encoding in the mail() function.

 

$body = 'Sähköposti:' ;

mail($salesEmail, "Call Back Request", $body, "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\nContent-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\r\nFrom: $salesEmail") ;

 

= 'S�hk�posti:' or just squares in Outlook.

 

I have also tried hard coding them as ä and ö and the symbol literals to no effect.

 

Does anyone know what is causing this?

Use MIME. Add mail headers:

 

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain;charset=utf-8

Not sure what you mean, I already have that set to html which is required (see above).

 

mail($salesEmail, "Call Back Request", $body, "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\nContent-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\r\nFrom: $salesEmail") ;
