Most likely this is one of many occurences of the UTF problem. Try adding the line AddDefaultCharset iso-8859-1 to your httpd.conf, either within your vhost specification or by replacing the main one. Then restart Apache. Should work. If you don't have root access - try adding it to an .htaccess file, but I don't know of this directive is allowed in there .. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
