Hello
I've built a newsletter database where a customer can type
his text into a text area and then send it out to the
subscriber list via PHP.
Now this customer wants to copy & paste his texts from
MS Word into that text area. This leads to problems with
character sets that are not email/ascii compatible. It's
not visible in the preview, it's also no problem with our
Eudora Email setup, but some recipients' servers were
complaining about wrong character sets.
Is there a function in PHP that can translate these
characters into plain text somehow? Can you help with
other options or workarounds / program recommendations?
Thanks a lot
Mike
