Heya, nhaldsev.

Where is the Arabic text? Is it in your PHP code? Is it stored in the database? Is it hard-coded in your HTML?

Depending on where the text is, the solution will be different.

hey there ....

I had a similer problem before, I'm not sure, but i think the local server I used 'which I forgot it's name' had forced some encoding to show up ! ?
so after I tried other one, which is "http://www.appservnetwork.com/ " it worked fine, I have been using it for three years .... works great with Arabic ..
