| fotoflo | but it doesnt work |
| octagon | so it's definitely your DBI stuff then |
| fotoflo | i dont see it, but when i copied it to the clipboard it was there. yeah its defanatly dbi i wanna try that guys perl module |
| octagon | it looks like it's doing exactly what you did the decode thing |
| fotoflo | btw, octagon, thanks so much for all this help even if we arent getting anythign solved |
| octagon | lol you're welcome for nothing :) |
| fotoflo | well, its the effort, not nessisarly the outcome |
| octagon | $description = data_string_desc($string); from the DBI docs Returns an informal description of the string. For example: UTF8 off, ASCII, 42 characters 42 bytes UTF8 off, non-ASCII, 42 characters 42 bytes UTF8 on, non-ASCII, 4 characters 6 bytes UTF8 on but INVALID encoding, non-ASCII, 4 characters 6 bytes UTF8 off, undef that might be informative cause it will tell you what DBI thinks it is especially the INVALID possibility |
| fotoflo | tried using that guys thing, no luck Undefined subroutine &main::data_string_desc c octagon: url? |
| octagon | you need to do 'use DBI qw/:utils/;' |
| fotoflo | oh i trid that before |
| octagon | http://search.cpan.org/~timb/DBI/DBI.pm what did it tell you? |
| fotoflo | nothign |
| octagon | did it say it was UTF-8 or not? lol |
| fotoflo | use DBI and use DBI qw/adsfadsf/ are teh same thing, no? |
| octagon | no |
| fotoflo | undef sub doesnt use DBI include all sub packages? |
| octagon | not by default |
