Have been searching around for a while on this one and I havn't really found an answer.
I have a client trying to upload csv and html files into a bulk emailing solution I built a while ago and the files contain Chinese characters.
The files come out quite garbled once uploaded.
the page with the form is set to big5 encoding (this is controlled by the users profile depending on the country they are from)
I read somewhere a while ago that when you use enctype=multipart/form-data within forms the encoding of the page gets reset to the default en encoding. I found this true when testing. I removed the enctype from the form and then typed in some Chinese in a textarea. The results were okay without the enctype but when I added in the enctype=multipart/form-data back in the data from the textarea was garbled.
Has anyone come across this problem and found a work around to get double byte characters working properly with file uploads?
