$_POST empty if there is accent in text - girub - 05-06-2017
Hi everyone I'm trying to create a bee that accepts a json in post and I realized that if the word "CoupÈ" in the json text is present, the variable $_POST is empty. I'm using codeigniter but I do not think that's the reason. In the codeigniter configuration I see that $config['charset'] = 'UTF-8' is set;
The json I'm trying to receive is this:
Code:
{
"modelli": [
{
"numero": 0,
"modello": “popoloso”
},
{
"numero": 1,
"modello": “ooooooo”
},
{
"numero": 3,
"modello": "CoupÈ"
}
],
"oraInizio": "21:00",
"durataProve": 5
}Any suggestion is useful. thank you so much
Giuseppe

Check this https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/input.html
The solution should be $something = $this->input->post('CoupE');
Also make sure your form method is "POST"

Here is the error that I get from your sample Json and its not on CoupÈ
Error: Parse error on line 4:
...": 0, "modello": “popoloso” }, {
----------------------^
Expecting 'STRING', 'NUMBER', 'NULL', 'TRUE', 'FALSE', '{', '[', got 'undefined'

If you are using Javascript try using JSON.stringify(object) and in PHP its json_encode(array) to generate valid JSON.
