I am trying to create a simple mail form (i.e. five fields, the users pushes
send and using the mail function I get an email with their input values).
The problem is that some people will be filling out the form in Hebrew. When
someone fills out the form in Hebrew, I get an email with junk:
סT.רT "ת.ת & "Tס~.רT " Tour dates: 22,5,02 to 22,6,03 א .
ר.צTם ~T.o zע TTY .zT.-" '. עס.ק '"'רTם
ר'Tם - >z. >Y T>.o o"T.ת ש-" T"T" zT.-"
'zT .!
I have the Hebrew language stuff installed on my (winXP) machine and it
works fine in Word, Dreamweaver, IE, etc... Any thoughts?

You might want to limit your users to submitting a few characters sets http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.3
<form accept-charset="utf-8,iso-8859-1,us-ascii" ...
I think the user-agent will convert hebrew to one of the above when
submitting, but I'm not sure it works.

USENET would be a better place if everybody read: ** mail address ** http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html ** is valid for ** http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote2.html ** "text/plain" ** http://www.expita.com/nomime.html ** to 10K bytes **
FYI for future readers of this post, it was Pedro's suggestion combined with
setting the right charset in the header of the email that did the trick.

In my effort to learn PHP I'm playing with some simple email scripts. They
worked a few days ago but they stopped working. The only thing I've done to
this Windows 2000 PC in this time was a Windows Update which I do regularly.
The only part of this update that might be related was an IE 6 update.
So I uninstalled and reinstaled PHP 4.3.3. The mail server setting is correct
in the php.ini file. But email is still not being sent.

I know how to build forms with ASP and process user input.
Now i want to take credit card payments via a form.
i will then download the details and process them via our credit card
machine.
do i just create a regular ASP form and use a certificate on the
server to encrypt the data ? ie https://server/getpaymentform.asp
there is nothing special about the form is there ?
it is just the same as the form i have been using for user input.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
