RE: [PHP] Convert UTF-8 to windows-874?



I think that the iconv function/package may have what you are looking
for...

This is just a parrot of previous answers to similar questions.

I have no personal knowledge...

You could also contact the Thai folks and find out if there is
anything "close enough" to Windows-874 to use.

From my limited understanding, sometimes the difference between 2
encodings is sooooooo minor that you're only screwing up a couple
characters, and only a linguist cares. :-v

I also suspect that MS, in typical fashion, may have "stolen" (no!) a
character encoding, renamed it windows-874, and it's really really the
same thing as an OSS encoding of another name.

There is a function mb_convert_encoding() that could be used. However,
I
have not found out how to code windows-874?

Warning: mb_convert_encoding(): Unknown encoding "ISO-8859-11" in
D:\webserver\viphavadee\sms\classes\sms.class.php on line 17

Was one of my attempts...

Anyone with a hint of how to work out this problem?

Hi group,



I am having a site all encoded in UTF-8, and it works fine. I use AJAX
a lot
to send data back and forth to the server.



I have one service that requires that I send the data in windows-874
encoding (SMS gateway in Thailand). So is there anyway I can take the
data
that is UTF-8 and then convert it to windows-874 and then send it to
the SMS
gateway?



Best regards,

Peter Lauri
