[PHP] I18n problems: Working with double-byte languages
Hi people ! I have a query regarding double-byte languages on PHP. I need to sort a index localized from English to Korean. My idea is: * get the Korean strings from file; * convert them to UTF8; * insert them in a Oracle database set to work with UTF8; * set NLS_LANG with Alter session SQL command to this variable match with Korean language; * get the strings sorted by Oracle with a SELECT * FROM table SORT BY field ASC SQL command; I've tried to convert the Korean string to UTF8 with utf8_encode function, but this function converted each byte from double-byte string to its relative in UTF8 chars. Reverting this string encoded to UTF8 with utf8_decode function, the browser can display successfully the Korean chars (because the individual bytes of the double-byte string will be as them were before), but Oracle can't sort the strings properly because that UTF8 chars converted by utf8_encode function were not relative to a double-byte char, but relative to a 2 single bytes chars! How can I convert a double-byte string to UTF8 properly??? Really thanks _ Ricardo J. A.

RE: [PHP] Session troubles
Hi Sean ! I had the same problem... this can be resolved using the function session_write_close() at the end of each script you use sessions. It will force PHP to call the write and close function. In some combinations of PHP version, Apache and OS, this problem doesn't happens, but as you, I had this problem too.. :) Put this function in yours PHP scripts and see if now them will work.

Ok Jaime. I've imagine that he had the same problem that I have had before..

Subject:RE: [PHP] Session troubles
Ricardo,
I've had some strange problems with session writing, but they always
returned back to the fact that return false was being used in the
session read function. PHP 4.0.6 wouldn't write out sessions when
register_globals was set to off when you were using return false. PHP
4.1.0 crashes with signal 11 after a bit when using return false.
I've filed a couple of bug reports with the request that this be fixed.
I believe a patch is either being worked on or already submitted, but
I'm not positive.
Sean's problem is that he's using return false in his session read
function. The session read function should return a blank value ('')
and not false when there's no data. This was never clear in the
documentation (and complaint I made) but is quite true. Once switching
over to using ('') instead of (false), I no longer had problems.

RE: [PHP] Session troubles
This was problem that I had: the function write was not been called by PHP
sessions functions when a script finish or when I change the variable
contents.
Searching on PHP.net I saw this solution there: add a call to function
session_write_close() at the end of the php code.
This should be another problem with Sessions functions... but I need to test
this with PHP 4.1...
