unicode character transport + decoding problems
Date: Sat, 12 Feb 2005 12:36:56 -0700
Hello,
I joined because curl seems to work great for what I'm doing, except
I'm having problems with foreign characters turning into "?" question
marks. It seems like it could be a user-agent or accept-charset
issue, but I'm not certain.
Currently, I can see all these websites on my browser but am having
problems retrieving them as they come back as "????????".

Here's the simple PHP code:
Should I be setting my headers on the page, or anything else to match
the results?
I've tried header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1') and
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8') without luck.
Thanks for any ideas.
Brian
