I have a problem with encoding, I tried to convert my html in utf8 using CodeIgniter, so my code is:
public function generateTitlePage($company)
{
$this->load->library('dompdf_gen');
$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$search = array('%27', '%20', '%C3%A2', '%C3%AE');
$replace = array('', ' ', 'â', 'î');
$company = str_replace($search, $replace, $company);
$html = '
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
</head>
<body>
<div style="margin-top:20px;text-align: center;font-weight: bold">
LIMITATĂ'.$company.'
</div>
</body>
</html>
';
$dompdf->load_html($html);
$dompdf->render();
$dompdf->stream("welcome.pdf");
}
So, my output pdf is LIMITAT? name of company,I dont't understand why Ă is not converted is use meta tag, also I use Codeigniter config: $config['charset'] = 'UTF-8'; Help me pleaaaaase, thnx in advance
there is no direct conversion method.you have to use str_replace or something similar.for more info you can see this:PHP converting special characters, like ş to s, ţ to t, ă to a

I am making a system that automatically generates a contract, the problem is that I am unable to print some of the characters in PDF.
Sérgio Avilla (My name, for example, goes like this) ->
It should come out like this: Sérgio Avilla.
Below is the simplified application code.
<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
include 'config.php';
header("Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
function file_get_contents_utf8($fn) {
$content = file_get_contents($fn);
return mb_convert_encoding($content, 'UTF-8', mb_detect_encoding($content, 'UTF-8, ISO-8859-1', true));
}
$html = file_get_contents_utf8("contratos/".$contrato);
$mpdf = new \Mpdf\Mpdf();
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html);
$mpdf->Output();
?>
I would be grateful if anyone could help me. I've already tested, $ html, if printed directly on the screen gives no problems, all the right characters, the problem is mpdf down.
On the contract html file there was a charset =... , meta tag, I just changed it to charset = utf-8 and it worked.
After:<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
Before: <meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
I am trying to read and display the content of the title (contained in a h1 tag) from many HTML files. These files are all in the same folder.
This is what the html files look like :
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN'>
<html>
<head>
<title>A title</title>
<style type='text/css'>
... Styles here ...
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Être aidant</h1>
<p>En général, les aidants doivent équilibrer...</p>
... more tags ...
</body>
I have tried to display the content from the H1 tag with this PHP script :
<?php
foreach (glob("test/*.html") as $file) {
$file_handle = fopen($file, "r");
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadHTMLfile($file);
$title = $doc->getElementsByTagName('h1');
if ( $title && 0<$title->length ) {
$title = $title->item(0);
$content = $doc->savehtml($title);
echo $content;
}
fclose($file_handle);
}
?>
But the output contains wrong characters. For the example file, the output is :
Être aidant
How can I achieve this output?
Être aidant
You should state a charset in the <head> of your HTML document.
<meta charset="utf-8">
you need to use utf-8 encoding
change echo $content to echo utf8_encode($content);
Would like to try crawling data from taobao site.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
include_once('simple_html_dom.php');
$target_url = "http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a2106.m893.1000384.54.61Q4Fp&id=37676614376&_u=fm86qe4d813&scm=1029.newlist-0.1.50006843&ppath=&sku=&ug=#detail";
$html = new simple_html_dom();
$html->load_file($target_url);
foreach ($html->find('h3[class=tb-main-title]') as $post) {
echo html_entity_decode($post, ENT_QUOTES, "ISO-8859-1") . "<br />";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
But it displays the product title in this:
2014��ЬŮʿ�������¿��ϸ��ƽ���ļ��¿����ϴ���ƽ����Ь��
In order to avoid that, you need to use iconv function. Consider this example:
include 'simple_html_dom.php';
$target_url = "http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a2106.m893.1000384.54.61Q4Fp&id=37676614376&_u=fm86qe4d813&scm=1029.newlist-0.1.50006843&ppath=&sku=&ug=#detail";
$contents = file_get_contents($target_url);
$html = str_get_html($contents);
foreach($html->find('h3[class=tb-main-title]') as $post) {
$text = $post->innertext;
$text = iconv('gb2312', 'utf-8', $text);
echo $text;

}
My Url Change to Seo Friendly using this function + .htaccess . My Project Is in ARABIC Language !
function clean($title) {
$seo_st = str_replace(' ', '-', $title);
$seo_alm = str_replace('--', '-', $seo_st);
$title_seo = strtolower(str_replace(' ', '', $seo_alm));
return $title_seo;}
now in my url I see This :
localhost/news/4/�����-��-����-�����-��-����/
What's Problem ?
Thanks
Try this in your code before doing anything else and tell me if it works:
mb_internal_encoding("UTF-8");
mb_regex_encoding("UTF-8");
Try this...
$dbconnect = #mysql_connect($server,$db_username,$db_password);
$charset = #mysql_set_charset('utf8',$dbconnect);
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8" />
</head>
Check if your database field collation is properly set to UTF-8, and that your connection is UTF-8 SET NAMES "utf8".
If you're using any characters from values in your scripts, make sure they're UTF-8 as well.
Try it... it works for me
<?php
function clean_url($text)
{
$code_entities_match = array(' ','&','--','"','!','#','#','$','%','^','&','*','(',')','_','+','{','}','|',':','"','<','>','?','[',']','\\',';',"'",',','.','/','*','+','~','`','=','"');
$code_entities_replace = array('-','-','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','');
$text = str_replace($code_entities_match, $code_entities_replace, $text);
return urlencode($text);
}
?>
I am loading a HTML from an external server. The HTML markup has UTF-8 encoding and contains characters such as ľ,š,č,ť,ž etc. When I load the HTML with file_get_contents() like this:
$html = file_get_contents('http://example.com/foreign.html');
It messes up the UTF-8 characters and loads Å, ¾, ¤ and similar nonsense instead of proper UTF-8 characters.
How can I solve this?
UPDATE:
I tried both saving the HTML to a file and outputting it with UTF-8 encoding. Both doesn't work so it means file_get_contents() is already returning broken HTML.
UPDATE2:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="sk" lang="sk">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="sk" />
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$html = file_get_contents('http://example.com');
echo htmlentities($html);
?>
</body>
</html>
I had similar problem with polish language
I tried:
$fileEndEnd = mb_convert_encoding($fileEndEnd, 'UTF-8', mb_detect_encoding($fileEndEnd, 'UTF-8', true));
I tried:
$fileEndEnd = utf8_encode ( $fileEndEnd );
I tried:
$fileEndEnd = iconv( "UTF-8", "UTF-8", $fileEndEnd );
And then -
$fileEndEnd = mb_convert_encoding($fileEndEnd, 'HTML-ENTITIES', "UTF-8");
This last worked perfectly !!!!!!
Solution suggested in the comments of the PHP manual entry for file_get_contents
function file_get_contents_utf8($fn) {
$content = file_get_contents($fn);
return mb_convert_encoding($content, 'UTF-8',
mb_detect_encoding($content, 'UTF-8, ISO-8859-1', true));
}
You might also try your luck with http://php.net/manual/en/function.mb-internal-encoding.php
Alright. I have found out the file_get_contents() is not causing this problem. There's a different reason which I talk about in another question. Silly me.
See this question: Why Does DOM Change Encoding?
Exemple :
$string = file_get_contents(".../File.txt");
$string = mb_convert_encoding($string, 'UTF-8', "ISO-8859-1");
echo $string;
I think you simply have a double conversion of the character type there :D
It may be, because you opened an html document within a html document. So you have something that looks like this in the end
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>Test</title>.......
The use of mb_detect_encoding therefore may lead you to other issues.
İn Turkish language, mb_convert_encoding or any other charset conversion did not work.
And also urlencode did not work because of space char converted to + char. It must be %20 for percent encoding.
This one worked!
$url = rawurlencode($url);
$url = str_replace("%3A", ":", $url);
$url = str_replace("%2F", "/", $url);
$data = file_get_contents($url);
I managed to solve using this function below:
function file_get_contents_utf8($url) {
$content = file_get_contents($url);
return mb_convert_encoding($content, "HTML-ENTITIES", "UTF-8");
}
file_get_contents_utf8($url);
Try this too
$url = 'http://www.domain.com/';
$html = file_get_contents($url);
//Change encoding to UTF-8 from ISO-8859-1
$html = iconv('UTF-8', 'ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT', $html);
I am working with 35000 lines of data.
$f=fopen("veri1.txt","r");
$i=0;
while(!feof($f)){
$i++;
$line=mb_convert_encoding(fgets($f), 'HTML-ENTITIES', "UTF-8");
echo $line;
}
This code convert my strange characters into normal.
I had a similar problem, what solved it was html_entity_decode.
My code is:
$content = file_get_contents("http://example.com/fr");
$x = new SimpleXMLElement($content);
foreach($x->channel->item as $entry) {
$subEntry = html_entity_decode($entry->description);
}
In here I am retrieving an xml file (in French), that's why I'm using this $x object variable. And only then I decode it into this variable $subEntry.
I tried mb_convert_encoding but this didn't work for me.
Try this function
function mb_html_entity_decode($string) {
if (extension_loaded('mbstring') === true)
{
mb_language('Neutral');
mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8');
mb_detect_order(array('UTF-8', 'ISO-8859-15', 'ISO-8859-1', 'ASCII'));
return mb_convert_encoding($string, 'UTF-8', 'HTML-ENTITIES');
}
return html_entity_decode($string, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');
}
