Href with non regular chars

[dstonek]

Hello,

I have several dirs containing pdf files.
Using opendir, readdir and other functions I built an html table to display file content of each directory with a link to download each file.

My problem is that the people who named the files has used non regular chars on them.
For example: a3h_18 834_f1 balnerio iporá.pdf

The href goes fine with files without accented vowels.
In this case I get this error:

File does not exist: /home/.../a3h_18834_f1balnerioipor\xc3\xa1.pdf, referer: ...
Thanks in advance for your help

try urlencode()

I had tried that.
My browser displays the link to follow as
[url]http://.../a3h_18+834_f1+balnerio+iporá.pdf[/url]

Copied-pasted that link from my browser
[url]http://.../a3h_18+834_f1+balnerio+ipor%E1.pdf[/url]

The error is
File does not exist: /home/.../a3h_18+834_f1+balnerio+ipor\xe1.pdf

While the real file is a3h_18+834_f1 balnerio iporá.pdf
with spaces and á

Thank you
