I assume there has been no intention on not replying to the list.
Any one interested of course can ask him to send his code, as he
says it's free (as in something).

**PHP**
Dear Behdad,
Thank you for your reply.
The library contains the following functions:
- fa_send_headers(): As the name says, this function sends required HTTP
headers for a Farsi-UTF-8 encoded page.
- is_win9x() - Returns TRUE if client-side is running under Win9x.
- fa_get_farsi_number() - Converts the given number from Latin numerical
symbols to Farsi numeral.
- fa_encode_numericentity()
- fa_decode_numericentity()
- fa_get_user_input() - filters user inputs in POST, GET requests
- fa_get_userfriendly_string() - Returns a compatible string depending on
'User Agent'
- ob_farsi_handler() - ob_start callback function to filter output content
383 Lines of codes.
Why I'm going to release this library?
To help ourselfs to have a correct Farsi content on the Web.
That's why it's free. No body wrote such libraries before. the "Yeh" and
"Keh" problem are infecting Farsi web pages today!
These functions helps us to control our content.
This is only my duety. That's all.
Any way, Thank you again.
Bedrood,
Behzad
