I\'m having some problems with sending POST data to a PHP script with NSURLConnection. This is my code:
const char *bytes = [[NSString stringWithFormat:@
If you use NSURLSession then in iOS9 set
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:url cachePolicy:NSURLRequestUseProtocolCachePolicy timeoutInterval:60.0];
[request addValue:@"application/json; charset=utf-8" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
[request addValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Accept"];
request.HTTPMethod = @"POST";
In PHP set
//connection to the database
$dbhandle = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)
or die("Unable to connect to MySQL");
echo "Connected to SQL.";
//select a database to work with
$selected = mysql_select_db($db,$dbhandle)
or die("Could not select anons db");
echo "Connected to DB sucess.";
mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
mysql_query("SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8'");
mysql_query("SET SESSION collation_connection = 'utf8_general_ci'");
In the db (MySql5) set utf-8_generic.
