tried that, seems to break output. either half pages (mostly on  
single quotes(!)) or wrong characters (euro signs as garbage, etc...)  
are displayed.

the solution i have now seems to work... i am just not sure what  
changing the internal encoding halfway through your the scripts  
actually does... is it from that point on.... or does it also change  
existing variables that are encoded. or doesn't it matter as long as  
your switch before using those variables to the correct encoding. or...

and then there is still the issue of the backend that currently  
doesn't have any conversion... which means bc will accept forms as  
iso-xxxx-x convert it to utf-8 and thus saves it as utf-8 in a  
possibly iso encoded db... It should work but isn't very nice...

which path do you mean?
