Question

I use following statement for read the value and its works well.

$PlaceName=$_REQUEST['PlaceName'];

but here is one problem with above statement. If we pass some special type character (like Burger King ®), then variable $PlaceName contains blank value. Note that the reason of this problem is the symbol of registered trademark (®)

So how can I read this type of symbol in PHP by correcting above statement?

Answer 1

You can try

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
$PlaceName= "Burger King ®" ;
echo $PlaceName;
