Skepsis Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Hello, I'm having troubles parsing text properly. Whenever I submit data into a mysql db, and then call that specific data, in the text, I get this symbol, �. Does anybody know what it is or how to remove it? I believe it's with utf-8 and me using a function that corrupts the string but I'm not sure. Anybody have any clues? Thanks in advance.

Zurev Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Check out utf8_decode, try and use it on the output and get back! http://php.net/manual/en/function.utf8-decode.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skepsis Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 That worked perfectly, it seems that when post data was sent to the db, some whitespaces were converted to  . which is where the problem was. Thank you kindly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
