Defect Character Encoding in utf-8 #39

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. the â character is not displayed correctly if it's the only special
character in that line (or if there are more like it).
2. if it's accompanied by other similar characters is displayed correctly
(like ăîşţ)
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please provide any additional information below.
in exaple there are 4 lines (rows)...that exeplifies the ouput (lines 1-3
contain only the problematic character; lines 2-4 contain another special
characther in addition to lines 1-3). 1,2 are lowercase, 3,4 are uppercase.

don't think that the problem is caused by php-excel-reader and seems to me that 
it 
is related to the browser. I used a small program to interpret the characters 
(if 
you want it, have uploaded it under issue 36) and i see that the value returned 
is 
correct. The only problem is what i see on the screen but this changes 
completely in 
the moment i add (or remove) the 'content="text/html; charset=utf-16"' from the 
html 
meta tag. Test has been done on two cells. In one i had the ã together with 
other 
characters from many languages (arabic, latin, japanese) and in the other cell 
i had 
only the ã.

I just found the solution: Just wrap your output with utf8_encode ;-)

Hi, I am having the same problem. However , utf8_encode() breaks the string if 
it has more then 1 "special" char and helps only in case of a single special 
char in a string

When Yen sign was used
The whole cell left out in html.

I already use patch in 
http://code.google.com/p/php-excel-reader/issues/detail?id=31

Still no progress
I call this in my page too .
$exdata0 = new Spreadsheet_Excel_Reader("csv/type0.xls");
$exdata1 = new Spreadsheet_Excel_Reader("csv/type1.xls");

Thank you
