Upload Image with Filename in Different Language...

[RISTMO]

Hey,

I have an image upload script that works fine -- but only when the filename of the image being uploaded contains English characters.

When I try to upload an image named ??????.jpg for example (the filename has Arabic characters), the script doesn't work, and the filesize of the uploaded image is 0.

This is a problem as the site runs primarily in Arabic. I'm sure there's got to be a way to accept an image upload where the filename is in a different character set.

I can post the current script if that would help (it's kind of long). Any ideas?

Looks like this code's a bit over my head! I'm relatively new to uploading files... If anyone could help, that would be great!!! Here's the fix they mention:

// look for entities in the file name, and if found try to convert the filename to UTF-8
$filename = $attachmentinfo['filename'];
if (preg_match('~&#([0-9]+);~', $filename)){
    if (function_exists('iconv')){
        $filename = @iconv($stylevar['charset'], 'UTF-8//IGNORE', $filename);
    }

    $filename = preg_replace('~&#([0-9]+);~e',"convert_int_to_utf8('\\1')",$filename);
    $filename_charset = 'utf-8';
} else {
    $filename_charset = $stylevar['charset'];
}

$filename = preg_replace('#[\r\n]#', '', $filename);

// Opera and IE have not a clue about this, mozilla puts on incorrect extensions.
if (is_browser('mozilla')){
    $filename = "filename*=" . $filename_charset . "''" . rawurlencode($filename);
} else {
    // other browsers seem to want names in UTF-8
    if ($filename_charset != 'utf-8' AND function_exists('iconv')){
        $filename = @iconv($filename_charset, 'UTF-8//IGNORE', $filename);
    }

    if (is_browser('opera')){
        // Opera does not support encoded file names
        $filename = 'filename="' . str_replace('"', '', $filename) . '"';
    } else {
        // encode the filename to stay within spec
        $filename = 'filename="' . rawurlencode($filename) . '"';
    }
}

if ($extension != 'txt'){
    header("Content-disposition: inline; $filename");
    header('Content-transfer-encoding: binary');
}

Does that code snippet do any good? It seems incomplete to me.

Where is $attachmentinfo initialized? Where is is_browser() defined?
