function _unicode_check in Drupal 4

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 5 includes/unicode.inc \_unicode_check()
2. 6 includes/unicode.inc \_unicode_check()
3. 7 includes/unicode.inc \_unicode_check()

Perform checks about Unicode support in PHP, and set the right settings if needed.

Because Drupal needs to be able to handle text in various encodings, we do not support mbstring function overloading. HTTP input/output conversion must be disabled for similar reasons.

Parameters

$errors: Whether to report any fatal errors with form_set_error().

2 calls to _unicode_check()

unicode_check in includes/unicode.inc

unicode_settings in includes/unicode.inc

Return the required Unicode status and errors for admin/settings.

File

includes/unicode.inc, line 25
