Re: [JoPHP] UTF8 Encoding

[Markos]

Dear Alaa   I think UTF-8 will be the future of the web because you know man there are other operation systems like windows and UTF-8 will be like ISO someday when all machines in this world use UTF-8.   I see nokia mobile phones use UTF-16, so someday the Unicode team will make a standard Unicode for everything.   By the way,  the gmail use Arabic ASMO Encoding when sending Arabic e-mails   Tahnks, Mohammed Shannaq     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ala'a Ibrahim Sent: Tuesday, March 21, 2006 6:27 PM To: Jordan PHP User Group Mailing list Subject: [JoPHP] UTF8 Encoding   Dear Group, I'm kind of working on a webmail system, and this encoding thing poped up, regarding sending messages, I thought of changing the encoding of sent messages to UTF8, but the thing is that Yahoo, and Hotmail webmails doesn't understand UTF8, and Gmail sends all it's emails with UTF8. The thing I need to know is why everyone took there desecion? I can't send Arabic or even chinese emails from gmail to yahoo, or hotmail. why did gmail choose utf8 for sending, and more important why yahoo and Hotmail don't support UTF8 messages. --                                  Ala'a A.
