mcrypt produces binary output which is neither iso-8859-1 nor utf-8 therefore you should tell your database that that data is binary stuff, not text data. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-14 12:44:59] webmaster at philcorda dot de Description: ------------ Today, I tried to use mcrypt with utf8. The background was a mysql-connection running in utf8-mode and for this reason all the transfered strings have to be encoded in utf8. I set the default charset in the php.ini to utf-8 and php works fine but then I tried to encrypt strings with mcrypt and all the strings where given out in latin1 / ISO-8859-1 instead of utf-8. I don't know why mcrypt delivers the strings in latin1 instead of utf-8 but I would be happy if this bug could be solved 'till next version. For this time I'll use utf8_encode(). Reproduce code: --------------- Irrelevant Expected result: ---------------- utf-8 strings Actual result: -------------- latin1 strings ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42295&edit=1
