How can I save a json-encoded string with international characters to the databse and then parse the decoded string in the browser?
<?php $string = "très agréable"; // to the database $j_encoded = json_encode(utf8_encode($string)); // get from Database $j_decoded = json_decode($j_encoded); ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN""http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="fr" lang="fr"><?= $j_decoded ?></html>
