php POST and non-english language chars passes empty
- by haim evgi
I'm trying to program a Hebrew site with a search option.
(old site and the charset of this site is windows-1255)
I am using php 5.2 with Apache 2.2, on a Debian 5 (Lenny) with
appropriate code pages enabled.
I am using _POST to pass arguments to a script. If I pass
English word to the script everything works, but when I use Hebrew
nothing is passed through the POST function. When I use ECHO
to show _POST, the variable is empty.
What might be the problem?
P.S. this is old site that worked fine on PHP 4 with debian 4, and the problem arised only
after we upgrade to PHP5+debian5.
