Yeah, we should have some information that tells people that the locale
setting have effect on this, recategorizing...

The LANG environment variable on the faulty machines was set like
this:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
When changed to
LANG="en_US"
The problem is fixed. Thanks a lot!
However, shouldn't this behaviour be mentioned in the
manual for fgetcsv? I can imagine more people experiencing
this 'bug' that turns out to be not a bug...
Thanks again!

What locale specifier is set to LANG or LC_CTYPE
environment variable?

In order to narrow the problem down as much as I can, I tried the
following script as well on the system that have problems with
fgetcsv:
<?php
$fp = fopen('csv_test.csv', 'r');
while (!feof($fp)) {
$buffer = fgets($fp, 4096);
echo $buffer;
}
fclose($fp);
?>
In this case, the umlauts do get read and printed.

Tested the same script on another machine (Suse 9.0), with PHP5.0.3
installed: problem does not occur here.
We have two (identically installed) machines on which this bug does
occur though.
Can anyone point us in some direction as to what might cause this
peculiar behaviour?

Description:
------------
fgetcsv on PHP5.0.3 has problems with reading CSV-fields that start
with an umlaut character (possibly other 'weird' characters as well).
It simply skips those characters.
PHP4.3.10 works fine.
Reproduce code:
---------------
csv_test.php:
<?php
$fp = fopen('csv_test.csv', 'r');
while($data = fgetcsv($fp, 2000, ';', '"')) {
var_dump($data);
}
fclose($fp);
?>
csv_test.csv:
language_name;country_name
Deutsch;�sterreich
Nederlands;Nederland
Deutsch;Deut�land
�nited Kingdom
Expected result:
----------------
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(13) "language_name"
[1]=>
string(12) "country_name"
}
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(7) "Deutsch"
[1]=>
string(9) "�sterreich"
}
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(10) "Nederlands"
[1]=>
string(9) "Nederland"
}
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(7) "Deutsch"
[1]=>
string(9) "Deut�land"
}
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(13) "�nited Kingdom"
}
Actual result:
--------------
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(13) "language_name"
[1]=>
string(12) "country_name"
}
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(7) "Deutsch"
[1]=>
string(9) "sterreich"
}
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(10) "Nederlands"
[1]=>
string(9) "Nederland"
}
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(7) "Deutsch"
[1]=>
string(9) "Deut�land"
}
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(13) "nited Kingdom"
}
