PHP Question: How to replace "�"? - GoFuckYourself.com

Anyone know how I can replace this symbol: � within a string? A regular replace doesn't seem to work.

delete it and put something else there?

Industrial strength:

Code:

<?
 $str = 'Your string here';
 $chr = ord('�');
 foreach(str_split($str) as $v) $fS .= ((ord($v) != $chr)?$v:'');

 //Result is in $fS
 var_dump($fS);
?>

You can also do it on the fly. This is what I had to do... but in my script everything runs through index.php...

Code:

$body = ob_get_contents();
$body = utf8_strip_non_ascii($body);
$body = str_replace('&Atilde;', '', $body);
$body = str_replace(' &Acirc;', '', $body);
$body = str_replace('&Acirc;', '', $body);
ob_end_clean();
print $body;

UTF/Charset manipulation is a right bastard.
