UFT-8 characters with nusoap

I'm working on my own keyword tracking tool (using Google SOAP API). I have a problem getting results for keywords which use special characters. I use nusoap lib. I know I have to encode all my queries with Utf-8 and I did that but it doesn't work fine

$client->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
$client->decode_utf8 = false;

What else should I do?

 

Here is a script that removes special characters, liamdelahunty.com/tips/remove_special_characters.php let me know if it work.

 

useful, thanks

 

thanks lukazs

 

Thanks for the tip

 

Thanks for the tweak, really interesting
I have never played with this untill now.

 

I have coded so many things and have had problems all because of not removing random characters in the input boxes. I now always using ereg_replace and preg becuase I'm tired of it.

 

Thanks for the tip, really useful

 

yes you are right

 

good advice, thanks mr lukas for the help

 

Redorbit, have you finished?

 

Is your project done? do you need beta testers?

 

Google and msn both use soap in conj with their api but there are scripts that can allow the api to work with curl and php thats what I do..

But the hard part now days is getting a google api they dont give them out anymore..
but you can get msn api key for free on msdn site..

 

Alright!!! I was hoping to see this information

 

Thanks for the tip

 

Is the tool working yet? I'd love to see it
BTW, what are these Google API key's - I have seen many tools require this but I got no idea what they are

 

what is Google SOAP API ??

 

thanks for this article... i was looking for such an article for so long,....

 

Nice article dude.

 

You can't get Google SOAP APIs anymore can you? anyone know where i can get one? i looked here and apparently google have discontinued them.
