Stange results from mssql with FreeTDS on Linux

[SpanKie]

Has anyone ever had result array trouble while using FreeTDS on Linux. Appears my mssql_fetch_array, or something is causing the results to return with strange block characters or pieces of text from the last value within the array. I'm finding it weird and hard to solve.

Here is the code I'm using:

<?php
$client=mssql_query("select * from clients");
while($row=mssql_fetch_array($client)) {
	echo $row['first_name']."<br>".$row['last_name'];
}
?>

OUTPUT EXAMPLE:

Bob Joe Smith
Jane Doemith

output also contain strange block ascii character and stuff ... really weird.

Any help would be appriciated.

tnx in advance.
