What is required encoding in txt files and encoding html pages when using txt files in php scripts (in the same html page)? Thank you in advance.

    If you save using a text editor from windows (notepad), then ANSI (encoding) is the "that". In HTML, I would advise you to use cp1251 encoding, although it is already out of date and it is time to switch to utf-8, the page encoding is indicated as follows:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> </body> </html>
    • Repeatedly already met here the term "ANSI encoding". What is it ? CP-1251, CP-866 or ISO-8859-5 or where to look at it? - avp
    • ANSI - the encoding in is indicated in the notepad, and when you press Ctr + S, a window will appear, asking you to enter the file name, and below the encoding. cp1251 is a coding for html pages, but it is better to use utf-8, just type in charset = windows-1251 or charset = utf-8. - Andrey Arshinov
    • ANSI - checked. So these clever men in Notepad called CP-1251. - avp
    • Then try utf-8 to create your own html pages, I can’t say anything about this encoding, since I use cp1251. - Andrei Arshinov

      [ANSI (values)] [1]> On Microsoft Windows systems, the code> ANSI page (English ANSI code page,> ACP) can mean:>> - Windows-1252 (in the context of American and Western European localizations)> - Windows-1251 - the so-called earlier corporation Microsoft "ANSI Cyrillic" (English ANSI Cyrillic)> - In general, any system encoding specified in the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\CodePage\ACP And so, of course, ANSI is not encoding. [1]: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… - Ilya Pirogov

    The encoding must be the same as on the HTML page. It is preferable to use only UTF-8 everywhere.

      if you think seriously to program, then only utf8 !!! There will be no problems with Russian regulars, for example. And indeed it is international and universal.

      • So much so that soon yutf8 will become the standard, and in general - it's time to get used to the rules of good tone, of course - you can work wonders on Denver, but put Apache and muscle with your hands - it only adds knowledge and confidence. - tukan
      • By the way, universal - rather UTF16. There is only one problem with it - the volume of the database)) - Sh4dow
