    Hi sahar,
     
    Do you get the same problem on demo page  http://phpfileuploader.com/demo/form-simple-upload.php?
     
    What file name you are testing?
     
    Regards,

    Re: non-english file name errors

    Hey Kenneth,
    No i dont have this problem with the demo uploader, however i checked with other uploading scripts and it has the same issue, Seems like my host doesn't allow non-english names...
    an example of file name is this:  
    פוטו.jpg
     
    however, with other uploading scripts i could modify the code so the file name will be changed on upload and the issue got solved, but i cant do it here (i think so?)
     
    so i was wondering if there is any workaround?
     
    Thanks,
    Sahar.

    Hi sahar,
     
    1. Open file "\phpuploader\include_phpuploader.php"
     
    2. Find section below
     
    $PhpUploader_FSEncoding="ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT";
     
    3. Change the encoding to yours

    Re: non-english file name errors

    Hello,

    I've tried to use phpfileuploader after a while i haven't used it (was upgrading my website for a few months), but i can't get it to work, it seems like i have the same issue like before where i cannot upload files with non-english names.

     

    I tried to use both old script from my previous website and download a new script from this site but it didnt work out.

     

    This time im getting a different error message thought, any ideas what it could be?

    Re: non-english file name errors

    Well I've found the problem and solution,

    Seems like files in containing non-english were posted in reversed order, so instead of abc.jpg, i got jpg.abc...

     

    So the file failed to pass my security checks all the time, I've got that solved now, thanks for the help thought :)
