Hello!

BD> Hi,

BD> But when I output in PHP it only shows the correct characters if I send header 
BD> header("Content-type: text/html; charset=IBM850");
BD> I don't want to use charset IBM850 but ISO-8859-1. How to convert the umlauts. Why

BD> Best regards
BD> Bernhard Doebler


You can convert string from one charset to other by iconv* functions
in PHP.
