ob_iconv_handler

Convert character encoding as output buffer handler (PHP 4 >= 4.0.5, PHP 5)
string ob_iconv_handler ( string contents, int status )

Example 967. ob_iconv_handler() example:

<?php

iconv_set_encoding("internal_encoding", "UTF-8");
iconv_set_encoding("output_encoding", "ISO-8859-1");
ob_start("ob_iconv_handler"); // start output buffering
?>

Code Examples / Notes » ob_iconv_handler

Just a quick note that may be helpful for some: It seems to me that this function also modifies the HTTP Content-Type header that's sent to the client (at least in combination with the iconv_set_encoding() function). If you specify an encoding ending with "//TRANSLIT" or "//IGNORE" (valid in iconv), it will still send the encoding name in the HTTP header. This makes it an invalid character set unfortunately. For example: <?php iconv_set_encoding("internal_encoding","UTF-8"); iconv_set_encoding("output_encoding","ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT"); ob_start("ob_iconv_handler"); ?> will send a Content-Type header of "ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT".
