Re: character encoding

Hi Manuel

In the body that column shows " Brébeuf " in Windows Outlook.

You may want to try this MIME message composing and sending class that
http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage

Looks great Manuel.but my server is under dyndns and the DN isn't
qualified
so no mail functions available.

I am not sure what you mean. This class can compose messages which can
be delivered by different drivers, like the mail() function, SMTP
client, qmail, sendmail, etc. If you can't use the mail function, you
can still send message relaying them through an SMTP server, like for
instance Gmail's.


I was asking how to have the right character set translation so the data
stored in the table show no grimmerish in the outlook window.

A simple mailto link in the page with some basic content defined does the
trick but the data retrieved from the table can look awsome in the mail
client before the user sends it back to the owner email address.

I'm making a site for myself. I'm a paintbrush artist, among other
things,
and I've set a buying level for the visitors. But one can ask to raise
his
level so he can buy more things in one session.
For that I use a mailto link sent to my hotmail with the request
giving the
name and address of the sender. And that's where I can't control
anything.
The guy may have written accented caracters in his record and when
that info
is brought back, it messes the Outlook msg window of the sender.

Can I force Outlook msg composer to use my Mysql table collation ?

You can build mailto: links with a default subject and text, but I am
not sure you can force Outlook to use specific HTML. It's wiser to not
rely on mailto: .
