If you would like to output SJIS when you are using EUC-JP as internal encoding, you shouldn't try to output SJIS encoding to browser. It will result in mojibake. Only use EUC-JP. Output buffer mechanism will buffer all output , including EUC-JP encoding text, then convert it SJIS in your setting. Use mb_convert_encoding and mb_convert_variables when you are reading text file or like. (And multipart/form-data, since mbstring will not try to convert encoding automatically when multipart/form-data form encoding is used) -- Yasuo Ohgaki > Thanks for all the help so far!
