I am hoping that someone can help can japanese user input into my pgsql
database ...
I am still having trouble but am sure it is a simple thing; something
about mbstring probably.
I tried to directly insert user input into my DB but I got the following
error:
Warning: PostgreSQL query failed: ERROR: Invalid EUC_JP character
sequence found (0x8140) in /www/htdocs/test.php on line 31
So I assumed that I should first convert user input into EUC-JP.
I wrote some PHP code to do this but my original user input gets mangled.
I am including the output from my test code and the code at the end of
this email.
Can someone spot what my error/problem is?

PHP code I wrote:

<?php
$input = $_POST["textfield"];
// convert the user input into EUC-JP (detect user's encoding
// automatically)
$new = mb_convert_encoding($input, "EUC-JP", "auto");
// output original input and converted input to screen
// this doesn't work as the original input gets mangled
echo("<PRE>");
echo("<BR>\$_POST[\"textfield\"] : ".$input."<BR>");
echo("CONVERT \"auto\" to EUC-JP : ".$new."<BR>");
// the following outputs mbstring settings to the screen
echo("<BR>mb_internal_encoding() : ".mb_internal_encoding()."<BR>");
echo("mb_detect_order() : ".implode(", ", mb_detect_order())."<BR>");
// What is the value of the HTTP input conversion?
// I get a return of "false" which is really strange
// it should be "auto" since that is the setting in my
// php.ini file, and also what phpinfo() says
$enc = mb_http_input("P");
if ($enc == false) echo("<BR>mb_http_input() : FALSE<BR>");
echo("mb_http_input(): $enc<BR>");
echo("<BR>-----------<BR>");
// Here I check to see what encoding PHP thinks the
// input is in. I get a value of "pass" which is alse
// strange since it is not a valid return value!
$interenc = mb_internal_encoding();
$inputenc = mb_convert_variables($interenc, "", $input);
echo("<BR>input encoding is : ".$inputenc."<BR>");
echo("</PRE>");
?>
