confirming emails - HEREDOC and french characters

[mlindal]

So the next challenge:

I want to send a confirming email and have french characters inserted using PHP.

I am using HEREDOC formatting and inserting information from Filemaker using PHP.

The trouble is that if the Filemaker data has french characters, they show up as '&233' when the email is received.

Any thoughts?

Hello

Do you have an example of your codes ?

Usually, for french use ISO-LATIN or UTF-8 for encoding

your message.

tell me if this helps.

Hi,

Got it working using text / html and encoding the html message with UTF-8.

This isn't a big deal, but it would be nice to be able to send a text only message for those who don't read html emails.

but at least it works and quite well now.
