Question

In my website there is a form with a simple textarea for people to post comments. The problem is that sometimes I receive information in UTF-8 and sometimes in ISO. Is it possible to control that?

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but is it possible that the browser changes the codification of the data it sends?

Answer 1

If you want to be sure of what character set you are accepting, set it in your form

<form method="post" action="/your/url/" accept-charset="UTF-8">
</form>

You can see all the acceptable character sets here: Character Sets
