DELPHI AREA Forum

I just realized,delphi for php doesn't support persian strings well.
the persian strings known as non-ascii characters.

It does.

Use UTF-8 encoding, and don't forget to send encoding to the client.

OK!

And just how do I go about doing the UTF-8 encoding?

1. Save your files as UTF-8
2. Use meta tag in your HTML files to specify character encoding as follow:
   

   Code: Select all

   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

3. If appropriate, use HTTP header to specify character encoding (see PHP header function).
4. In your database, set character encoding of string fields to UTF-8
5. If using MySQL, set transfer encoding of the connection to UTF-8 using the following SQL:
   

   Code: Select all

   SET NAMES 'utf8';
