Re: [mp2] utf8 data garbled on second + subsequent loads

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2005/02/11]

I expect multiple decoding of the same text. Try to use conditional decoding

	$text = Encode::decode_utf8($text) if !Encode::is_utf8($text);

or let us look at your code. If you are sure that source data encoding is
utf8 and only utf8 flag is missing it is possible to use (but probably not 
suggested)

	Encode::_utf8_on($text)
