Re^2: encoding of file names

That's the thing - i would probably try using Encode, but i don't know the from encoding. The to encoding is supposed to be utf8.

Or do you mean to say that UTF-8 and utf8 are different things?

but i don't know the from encoding I think you can't do much harm by just trying 'UTF-8' as the from encoding :) `$filename = decode("UTF-8", $filename);` [download] When your file names are in fact in UTF-8, things will likely work out fine. Otherwise, you'll know they aren't UTF-8 encoded, and you can try some other encoding...	[reply] [d/l]
