Absolutely genius. Saved my hours of mysql text conversion. Now I just ignore the non-utf code that gets input into the cms and my XML feeds will work!….Thanks a lot!

Hi
thanks for the wonderful post. With you post i got my half solution.

For me little modification to the code was required i changed the code to $feed = iconv(“UTF-8″,”ISO-8859-1//IGNORE”,$feed);

but thanks a lot …

Dirty you said? Not at all. I’ve spending more than a half of an hour to find out a consistent solution to this problem. Most of the references relay vague and not developed “pseudo-solutions” or things like “go there and you’ll find utf8_encode is your friend” or “ask your xml file provider to add encode UTF8 etc…”.
Thanks a lot. I’ll record your RSS feed among the most useful dev. ones around.
