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.

it might be an idea to unescape the text then wrap the flash output as xml and have the php file parse this xml adding accents etc by interpeting the code vales produced by unescape

%26 for & and so on

only an idea...untried
