Thread: Special Characters problem with PHP

  1. #1
    Hi, guys, i'm working in a website that shows some news inside de flash movie. The news database is mysql and I use php for update and access that records from flash, but the site is in spanish, and the special characters don't show when I return the result from php to flash, even when the special characters ar OK in the database.
    When I say 'special characters' i'm talking about accents, and 'ñ' (i hope you can see it here!).

    Somebody can help me?

    Thanks in advance!

    the ascii range your probably trying to use may not be large enough to handle the font your using.

    got to this link:

    http://www.macromedia.com/support/fl...ts/unicode.htm


    and then have your php out put the unicode equivelents rather than the ascii.

    it's better form anyhow, and it will make your site more extensible in the future.

    take a look at this arabic example:
