encoding problam with ajax - El Forum - 10-06-2008

[eluser]A.M.F[/eluser]
hello everyone

i a working on a comment form and i am sending the form with ajax (jQuery) and i am using the plugin ajaxForm.

so i have this ajax code:

Code:
[removed]

   $(document).ready(function() {

      &lt;!-- sending the comment form --&gt;

      $('#commentSend').ajaxForm(function(data) { 

         alert(data); //here i am just validating that it sends

      }); 

   });

[removed]

i am using a simple HTML form, and in my controller i am just checking the fields and save them.
everything works fine expets when i am not writing the comment in english.
when i write it in other characters it encodes it to different thing, and in the DB it looks like that:

Quote:×¡×›×¢

i added this:

Code:
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=windows-1255');

to my controller but it still doesn't help.

can anyone help me?

ok i solved the thing.
after searching in google i found this functions that converts UTF-8 to the charset that i need:

Code:
function iconv_cp1255_utf8 ($cp1255) {

     return preg_replace("/([\xE0-\xFA])/e","chr(215).chr(ord(\${1})-80)",$cp1255);

}

cheers!
