Today, when I was revising my paper online, I encountered the iconv function. Learn
header('Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel;charset=UTF-8"');
$name=iconv('utf-8', 'gb2312', $data['year'] .'Year, No.'.$data['period'].'Correspondence');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="' . $name . '.xls"');
header( 'Cache-Control: max-age=0');
The meaning of this code is to convert the utf-8 format into gb2312 format, and then assign it to $name, so that when the name of the excel file is exported, it will be in Chinese The name of $name.
The following is the detailed and extended usage of this function
Original source URL (www.cnblogs.com/keheng/articles/2496017.html);
iconv("UTF-8","GB2312//IGNORE ",$data)
ignore means to ignore errors during conversion. Without the ignore parameter, all strings following this character cannot be saved.
This iconv() function is built-in in php5. Thank you.
Example:
echo $str= 'Hello, we sell coffee here!';
echo '
';
echo iconv('GB2312', 'UTF-8', $ str); //Convert the string encoding from GB2312 to UTF-8
echo '
';

echo iconv_substr($str, 1, 1, 'UTF-8'); //Press The characters are cut instead of bytes
Print_r (iconv_get_encoding ()); // get the current page encoding information
echo iconv_Strlen ($ Str, 'UTF-8'); // / is also used like this
$content = iconv("UTF-8","gbk//TRANSLIT",$content);

?>

iconv is not the default function of php, and it is also a module installed by default. It needs to be installed before it can be used.
If it is windows2000+php, you can modify the php.ini file and remove the ";" before extension=php_iconv.dll. At the same time, you need to copy the iconv.dll in your original php installation file to your winnt/system32 (If your dll points to this directory)
In the Linux environment, use static installation and add an additional item --with-iconv when configure. phpinfo can see the iconv item. (Linux7.3+Apache4.06+php4.3.2),
Download: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.8.tar.gz
Installation:
#cp libiconv-1.8. tar.gz /usr/local/src
#tar zxvf lib*
#./configure --prefix=/usr/local/libiconv
#make
#make install
compile php
#./configure --prefix=/ usr/local/php4.3.2 --with-ic/local/libiconv/
Simple example of use:
echo iconv("gb2312","ISO-8859-1","we");

Introduction to mb_convert_encoding and iconv functions in PHP
mb_convert_encoding This function is used to convert encodings. I used to not understand the concept of program coding, but now I seem to understand a little bit.
However, English generally does not have encoding problems, only Chinese data will have this problem. For example, when you use Zend Studio or Editplus to write a program, you use gbk encoding. If the data needs to be entered into the database, and the database encoding is utf8, then the data must be encoded and converted, otherwise it will become garbled when entering the database. .
See the official usage of mb_convert_encoding:
http://cn.php.net/manual/zh/function.mb-convert-encoding.php
Make a GBK To UTF-8
< ?php
header("content- Type: text/html; charset=Utf-8");
echo mb_convert_encoding("You are my friend", "UTF-8", "GBK");
?>

Another GB2312 To Big5
< ?php
header("content-Type: text/html; charset=big5");
echo mb_convert_encoding("You are my friend", "big5", "GB2312");
?>

But To use the above function, you need to install the mbstring extension library but you need to enable it first.
Another function iconv in PHP is also used to convert string encoding, and its function is similar to the function above.
There are some detailed examples below:
iconv — Convert string to requested character encoding
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.5, PHP 5)
mb_convert_encoding — Convert character encoding
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.6, PHP 5)
Usage:
string mb_convert_encoding ( string str, string to_encoding [, mixed from_encoding] )
You need to enable the mbstring extension library first, and remove the ; in front of extension=php_mbstring.dll in php.ini
mb_convert_encoding can specify multiple types Input encoding, it will automatically identify based on the content, but the execution efficiency is much worse than iconv;
string iconv (string in_charset, string out_charset, string str)
Note: The second parameter, in addition to specifying the encoding to be converted to, You can also add two suffixes: //TRANSLIT and //IGNORE. //TRANSLIT will automatically convert characters that cannot be directly converted into one or more approximate characters. //IGNORE will ignore characters that cannot be converted. By default, The effect is to truncate from the first illegal character.
Returns the converted string or FALSE on failure.
Use:
It is found that iconv will make an error when converting the character "-" to gb2312. Without the ignore parameter, all strings following this character cannot be saved. No matter what, this "-" cannot be converted successfully and cannot be output. In addition, mb_convert_encoding does not have this bug.
Generally use iconv. Only use the mb_convert_encoding function when you are unable to determine what the original encoding is, or when iconv cannot be displayed normally after conversion.
1 from_encoding is specified by character code name before conversion . it can be array or string - comma separated enumerated list. If it is not specified, the internal encoding will be used.
2 /* Auto detect encoding from JIS, eucjp-win, sjis-win, then convert str to UCS- 2LE */
3 $str = mb_convert_encoding($str, “UCS-2LE”, “JIS, eucjp-win, sjis-win”);
4 /* “auto” is expanded to “ASCII,JIS,UTF-8 ,EUC-JP,SJIS” */
5 $str = mb_convert_encoding($str, “EUC-JP”, “auto”);

Example:
1 $content = iconv(”GBK”, “UTF-8″ , $content);
2 $content = mb_convert_encoding($content, "UTF-8″,"GBK");

Parameters that are easily overlooked when using the iconv function in php
Today when processing the crawled content, when using iconv for encoding conversion, I found that the result would be interrupted. I guessed it was a problem with the character set. I thought about how to skip characters that do not exist in the target character set. I checked the manual and found that iconv has only three functions. Parameter, it seems not working, then I checked online and someone said it is possible, but I am very surprised how to implement it. Finally, I found that the English description says that I can add a mark to the end of the target code: "TRANSLIT". I am very depressed. How to add it? It turns out that "//" is added first, which is really depressing. There is such a design
Prototype: $txtContent = iconv("utf-8",'GBK',$txtContent);
Special parameters: iconv("UTF-8" ,"GB2312//IGNORE",$data)
Two optional auxiliary parameters: TRANSLIT and IGNORE, (where IGNORE means to skip if it encounters something that cannot be converted). Description
string iconv ( string in_charset, string out_charset, string str )
Performs a character set conversion on the string str from in_charset to out_charset. Returns the converted string or FALSE on failure.
If you append the string //TRANSLIT to out_charset transliteration is activated. This means that when a character can't be represented in the target charset, it can be approximated through one or several similarly looking characters. If you append the string //IGNORE, characters that cannot be represented in the target charset are silently discarded. Otherwise, str is cut from the first illegal character.

The above has introduced the PHPiconv function, including aspects of it. I hope it will be helpful to friends who are interested in PHP tutorials.
