Re: Encoding problem
Thanks for finding that one. I had not caught that before and I use non-english characters all the time. Guess Iäd better slow my application down by replacing all strtolower with the mb_ version... and possibly if clauses and things to make sure mb is installed. But have a look at php.net... it is possibly quicker to ask mysql to convert to lowercase than php (oh dear). It sounds incredible and I haven't run a test of this myself. http://se2.php.net/manual/en/function.mb-strtolower.php Quick rant: It makes my blood boil every time PHP makes my jaw to drop to the floor like this. Come on! Shouldn't this kind of thing be handled by PHP internally? mb this and mb that. Utf8 is 8bit, single byte, is it not? I don't have a single setting in my installation of php that suggests I prefer 8859. Take a hint why don't you, you silly language! BTW, why is this in the comments on php.net: mb_strtolower($str, mb_detect_encoding($str)); Why is that not built into the function? If PHP can detect the encoding... don't give me the option to screw it up but entering the wrong one! I can not come up with a single situation where I would want to make a string lowercase but do it badly and treat some characters the wrong way. Artistic reasons? I would have liked to see strtolower() do just that. They could have added a artistic_encoding_reinterpretation_strtolower() so that the 99.999% of calls to the function did what that name suggested. end rant. thanks again for posting this...

Re: Encoding problem
I noted that you need to do some extra work on ucfirst() since it has no direct mb_ equivalent. You have to roll your own or pick one from php.net since mb_convert_case() can only work like ucwords().

Re: utf-8 encoding problem
I wouldn't call it normal. I am not sure there is a normal collation. If you state nothing else MySQL will choose utf8_general_ci so that would be the default. Binary collation is the collation for non-lingual text. Every character counts and order clauses cause them to be ordered by their code-number, not any alphabet. Every other collation attempts to follow the rules of particular languages. They each have a cs and ci version for case (in) sensitivity. The general and unicode collations are quite similar in behavior (can't remember the differences) and roughly equate to the rules of the English language. If you only store basic English characters you are luck and can stop worrying now. But storing Swedish names in such a field will make poopie out of string comparisons and ordering of results. Ä be an A with some insignificant dots, even though it is a separate character in the Swedish language. The same goes for Spanish and any other language with anything but the 26 characters a-z. So, to cope with Swedish there is a utf8_swedish_ci (or cs) which recognizes Ä as it's own character but é as just an e and so on. I had a word of trouble with collations on a project last year. I was taken by surprise when MySQL decides to see A and Ä as the same character in where clauses... I thought collation was for ordering only, but it affects where statements, indexes and other things as- well. I strongly recommend reading the confusing and boring pages in the MySQL manual on the subject if you store and search for data in any language other than English. /Martin On Feb 4, 1:37 am, Webweave webwe...@gmail.com wrote: The ci flavors are for case-insensitive versions, so if you want John to be equal to john with no case conversion, you use one of them.

Re: utf-8 encoding problem
Must be something wrong with your copy of Firefox: I don't get any mis- encoding of the URL in mine. I have version 3.0.5 and tested it both on Windows XP and Mac OS X with no problems. The URL that gets displayed in the browser by pressing enter in the address bar is the one with the Arabic characters in it that I posted before. The URL that I see if I click the Google search button after that does get encoded, but it properly encodes as http://www.google.com/search?hl=enrls=igq=مقالbtnG=Search Now when I paste the URL into the Google groups editor, I do get http://www.google.com/search?hl=enrls=igq=%D9%85%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%84btnG=Search, but even that does the correct search.

Re: utf-8 encoding problem
The ci flavors are for case-insensitive versions, so if you want John to be equal to john with no case conversion, you use one of them. The utf8_bin is the normal collation.

Re: utf-8 encoding problem
Well, that to me would seem to mean that you are indeed trying to access the page from a page that is not defined as UTF-8. From Firefox, if I type مقال into the Google search box, I get a return search of http://www.google.com/search?q=مقالie=utf-8oe=utf-8aq=trls=org.mozilla:en-US:officialclient=firefox-a So wherever you are inputting the string, it is getting translated incorrectly (which to me means it's not UTF-8). See: http://tinyurl.com/b8fl58 If you load up Firebug, you should be able to look at the Response headers and see the Content-Type of text/html; charset=UTF-8 On Feb 2, 11:21 am, mohammad al-ani alani.moham...@gmail.com wrote: thank you Dr. Loboto but i find the real problem. i develop the site under firefox so if i use the internet explorer i can get the arabic word like it it but when i use the firefox and search for word like مقال the address of firefox will be /search?keyword=مقال and when i just confirm this link by press enter on it the firefox converted the link to http://www.localhost.com/alsameriae/search?keyword=%E3%DE%C7%E1 which will cuase the problem so is there any way to check form the encoding type On Mon, Feb 2, 2009 at 6:38 AM, Dr. Loboto drlob...@gmail.com wrote: Your problem is caused by wrong page encoding.

Re: utf-8 encoding problem
Mohammad Al-Ani, you really found your real problem - your page is not UTF-8 page! %xx form is url-encoded non-ANSI string as only 7-bit symbols can be used in URLs. That's why browers encode non-ANSI symbols and then they are automatically decoded by Cake before go into params. Some of browsers show encoded string in address bar and you see %xx string, some - not encoded and you see real word. Word %E3%DE %C7%E1 you saw in Firefox is wrong word, possibly encoded using windows-1256 as you indicated above. But Cake expects UTF-8, and real word in url-encoded form should looks like %D9%85%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%84 Correct all your pages encodings to UTF-8 and problem will go away!

Re: utf-8 encoding problem
How did you save your files? Are you working on Windows (using character set windows-1256) ? Windoze by default saves files on the file system with the default ANSI character set. In order to get it to save as UTF-8, you have to explicitly tell it to (e.g. in Notepad change the dropdown for encoding from ANSI to UTF-8).

Re: Encoding problem with helpers
1. Make sure everything in your database is utf8 (or other encoding needed). 2. Make sure you're connecting to your database with utf8[1]. 3. Make sure your pages are served in utf8.
