How do I display foreign languages in my php file
When I try to display letters of a foreign languages in my php file they show up as "?".
Anybody have any ideas how I can display them properly?
If I save the file as a HTML it displays the开发者_JS百科 letter properly.
To add support for foreign characters you need to use UTF-8 (or any other similar encoding but UTF-8 is the most widely used) encoding.
text editing
At first you need to have your PHP/HTML files in UTF-8 encoding, use a text editor that supports this encoding, just check that the editor doesn't prepend UTF-8 BOM symbols to the file.
PHP
To serve your PHP files as UTF-8 (so the browser doesn't get mixed up about this) add relevant header
<?php header("Content-Type: text/html; Charset=UTF-8"); ?>
HTML
To serve your static HTML pages as UTF-8 use appropriate meta tag
<!-- with HTML5 -->
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<!-- or with older HTML formats -->
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
MySQL
To save/load UTF-8 encoded text in MySQL use the following statement after connecting to the MySQL server
<?php
mysql_connect(...);
mysql_set_charset('utf8');
?>
but check that the tables have also appropriate encodings set
+Using charset=utf-8
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>
</head>
<body>
<body>
</body>
++ If you mention about open your php file .you have use an editor that support utf-8 something like this.
