Problem with accents using a Flash form

[alexanderdring]

Hi I have a made a really simple flash form and use the code below in order to send the information to a .php file (govip.php), which then in turn uses a phpmailer to send the mail.

on (release) {
form.loadVariables("govip.php", "POST");
}

This code is attached to the "Send" button. Everything works OK, except for accents. I need people to be able to enter characters such as é, ù, ê, etc but they are not translated properly when the e-mail is read back, instead appearing as à or ©. This may be a .php issue, but if anyone has any ideas, I would be really grateful!

Thanks.

Alex.

Not sure about Flash, but it sounds like a character set issue. Make sure your PHP form is set to Unicode, and your Flash app as well.
