PHP Bug Type: MSSQL related
Bug description: Accents not supported by mssql functions
Description:
------------
When reading data from a SQL Server database, certain ASCII characters are
incorrectly retrieved. Entering accented characters into the database
works fine, however reading them from the database gives unexpected
results.
ASCII chars 33 - 255 entered into database:
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>[EMAIL PROTECTED]|}~��������������������������������
�����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
(This appears fine when looking at the database using MS Enterprise
Manager)
Result from read query:
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>[EMAIL
PROTECTED]|}~__'�".��^%So_zY����Ͼ������������������������ǎ���Ԑ������ѥ���噞�������
�Ƅ�����������Ф������������
It appears that characters after ASCII #127 are incorrectly returned from
the database.
Using SQL Server 7.0 (ISO 8859-1 charset)
Reproduce code:
---------------
$string = '';
for ($i = 33; $i <= 255; $i++)
{
$string .= chr($i);
}
$db->query("UPDATE Test SET charset = 0x".bin2hex($string)." WHERE rowID
= 1");
$result = $db->query("SELECT charset FROM Test WHERE rowID = 1");
$row = $db->getAssoc($result);
echo $row['charset'];
Expected result:
----------------
I expected to see what I had previously entered into the database. All
text that contains accents is wrongly displayed.
Expected:
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>[EMAIL PROTECTED]|}~��������������������������������
�����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
Actual result:
--------------
Actual:
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>[EMAIL
PROTECTED]|}~__'�".��^%So_zY����Ͼ������������������������ǎ���Ԑ������ѥ���噞�������
