Here's what I use to set my language (to French in this case). It works
100% of the time for me:
// Set locale to preferred language
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr_FR');
bindtextdomain('messages', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/locale');
textdomain('messages');
I don't do the "putenv" line that you have, so I'm not sure if it's
necessary...

anyone who has worked with locales on different machines/platforms
will probably run into the problem that locales are different and/or
differently named on alot of systems...
for this reason (I believe) set_locale() allows you to pass
an array of locale names as the second arg - the first one found will be used...
e.g. (I use dutch locales alot):
setlocale( LC_ALL,
array('[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
'nl_NL',
'nld_nld',
'Dutch',
'Dutch_Netherlands.1252',
'nl_NL.ISO8859-1',
'nl') );
maybe that helps a bit.

it sometimes is I believe - depends on your setup (e.g. if your using CGI
version)
- don't hold me to that I could be completely wrong.

Hi Denis Gerasimov, you wrote:

Speaking from my experience, you need to use only "ru" there
on Windows...
> setlocale (LC_ALL,"ru");
...but you definitly have to use the Windows abbreviation
for the corresponding locale in the setlocale call.
Have a look at PEARs I18Nv2 module which attempts to solve
this discrepancy.

Hi all
I have some problems when I make a string containing the following
"Malmö, Asunción" to capital letters and then save it to a file.
I use the following to make it to capital letters:
$msg = mb_strtoupper($msg, "HTML-ENTITIES");
And this works just fine, everything looks as it should, but when I save
it to a file, this is how it looks:
"MALMÖ, ASUNCIÓN
It seems it has problems with "ó" and "Ö", does anybody know how this
can be solved? I have tried some different encodings but nothing helps,
I'm using PHP 4.3.2.
Thx in advance for all help.
/Erfan
