Facebook Application UTF-8 Issues in PHP
Question
I am developing a Facebook Iframe application using PHP which opens an RSS feed from another site and displays a selected item from the feed. The RSS feed if UTF-8 encoded, however when I display the selected item I get the characters displayed as ISO-8859 whatever.
Example: "Don’t" instead of "Don't"
This is my working code:
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->load('https://www.otherwebsite.com/rss.php');
foreach ($doc->getElementsByTagName('item') as $node) {
$title = $node->getElementsByTagName('title')->item(0)->nodeValue;
if ($title == $chinese->getAnimal()){
$horoscope = $node->getElementsByTagName('description')->item(0)->nodeValue;
}
}
echo ' : ' . $horoscope . '
';
}
I am using version 5.2 of PHP. Any questions or suggestions will be gratefully accepted, I am still learning PHP so I may have missed something obvious to a more skilled practitioner.

Try
echo 'Your horoscope : ' . utf8_encode($horoscope);
However that will only work for ISO-8859-1.
Alternatively try
$in_encoding = "ISO-8859-1"; //replace with the encoding of the RSS feed
echo 'Your horoscope : ' . iconv($in_encoding, "UTF-8", $horoscope);

Ensure you have a proper html header and meta for UTF-8 on your webpage ie:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd'>
<html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' xml:lang='eng' lang='en'>
<head>
<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=utf-8' />
<title>WAMP</title>
<meta name='Description' content='Website Under Construction' />
</head>
<body>
CONTENT
</body>
</html>
Also try casting the string to UTF-8 before echoing it.
$horoscope = utf8_encode("Your Horoscope : $horoscope");
echo $horoscope;

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1')
尝试将其添加到php文件的最顶层。
