How can I trap and clean this recurring error? - El Forum - 02-16-2011

CodeIgniter 2.0
I use the email class and repeatedly get this log-file-error which is preventing users from sending emails:
Code:
ERROR - 2011-02-14 22:41:47 -->
Severity: Notice --> iconv()
[<a href='function.iconv'>function.iconv</a>]:
Detected an illegal character in input string

You did notice it links to a specific PHP function that explains why this notice might be thrown? Did you check if that might be applicable?

Hi Jelmer,
The error occurs spasmodically when somebody uses the email functions. I have added an error-logging post message to save the $str and will monitor any future occurrences.
I did not notice that iconv(...) was a PHP function and thought it was a CI problem. I also had a quick look at the PHP documentation which was quite involved and will try again tomorrow, hopefully with a clear head and try to resolve the issue.
Many thanks for clarifying the error.
