[SOLVED] how can I create a utf-8 file?

[shedokan]

is there a way to create a .inc utf-8 file?

I tried but all I get is:

××××××××××××××

I think so. How are you creating and saving the file?

[shedokan]

   function writeGuide($id, $text){
  $f = fopen($id.".inc", "wb"); 
  $text = utf8_encode($text); 
  $text = "\xEF\xBB\xBF".$text; 
  fwrite($f, $text); 
  fclose($f); 
  }

[shedokan]

please.

What is being passed to the function?

What's in $text after the encode?

[shedokan]

$text is a utf-8 text

[shedokan]

please.

Try like this, keeping utf8_encode function inside fwrite parameter, not too sure

<?php 
function writeGuide($id, $text)
{
$f = fopen($id.".inc", "wb"); 
$text = "\xEF\xBB\xBF".$text; 
fwrite($f, utf8_encode($text));  
fclose($f); 
}
?>

nope now I just get different characters.

[shedokan]

please.

I know that almost all of you use fopen()!
