PHP: Dealing special characters with iconv -

-

i still don't understand how iconv works.

for instance,

$string = "löic & rené"; $output = iconv("utf-8", "iso-8859-1//translit", $string);

i get,

notice: iconv() [function.iconv]: detected illegal character in input string in...

$string = "löic"; or $string = "rené";

i get,

notice: iconv() [function.iconv]: detected incomplete multibyte character in input string in.

i nothing $string = "&";

there 2 sets of different outputs need store them in 2 different columns inside table of database,

  1. i need convert löic & rené loic & rene clean url purposes.

  2. i need keep them - löic & rené löic & rené convert them htmlentities($string, ent_quotes); when displaying them on html page.

i tried of suggestions in php.net below, still don't work,

i had situation needed characters transliterated, others ignored (for weird diacritics ayn or hamza). adding //translit//ignore seemed trick me. transliterates able transliterated, throws out stuff can't be.

so:

$string = "ʿabbĀsĀbĀd";  echo iconv('utf-8', 'iso-8859-1//translit', $string); // output: [nothing, , notice]  echo iconv('utf-8', 'iso-8859-1//ignore', $string); // output: abbsbd  echo iconv('utf-8', 'iso-8859-1//translit//ignore', $string); // output: abbasabad // yay! that's wanted!

and another,

andries seutens 07-nov-2009 07:38 when doing transliteration, have make sure lc_collate set, otherwise default posix used.  transform "rené" "rene" use following code snippet: setlocale(lc_ctype, 'nl_be.utf8');  $string = 'rené'; $string = iconv('utf-8', 'ascii//translit', $string);  echo $string; // outputs rene

how can work them out?

thanks.

edit:

this source file test code,

<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd xhtml 1.0 transitional//en" "http://www.w3.org/tr/xhtml1/dtd/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="no-js"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> </head> <?php $string = "löic & rené"; $output = iconv("utf-8", "iso-8859-1//translit", $string);  ?> </html>

and did save source file in utf-8 encoding? if not (and guess didn't since produce "incomplete multibyte character" error), try first.
