Encode characters above ASCII 255

[hsriat]

If I need to encode characters below ASCII value 32, I can use this:[php]$text = filter_var($tex t, FILTER_UNSAFE_R AW, FILTER_FLAG_ENC ODE_LOW);[/php]
How can I encode characters above ASCII value 256?

Heya, hsriat.

For what medium are you encoding them?

Hey pbmods,

Thanks for replying mate..

I figured this out later. It wasn't a problem with PHP encoding, but JavaScript encoding.
While posting something, if the user would include special characters like √, π, α, β, γ, δ, η... in his post, these characters would turn into the question mark things.

So this was the problem. But its completely out of my mind how did I come up with this question. Just, you know when thing are not working, you try even those things which don't have any relation.

So the actual reason was, while posting the text through Ajax, I was doing escape(), but it had to be encodeURICompon ent().
