I have a file need for german language. I use utf8_encode that my site can view character like ö and other, which not the usual letter. Everything is fine. But there's something bother me. for example, the text is Überprüfung When, i try to access the file, the unique character is change to like this: Ã^Überprüfung, even i have input the text: Überprüfung so, i have to use utf8_decode to fix that. But at the other file, the text i input doesn't change. It keep written: Überprüfung I don't know what happen. I try at the localhost and my VPS and both get the same result. Any one could give me solution please? Thanks
