Why Does DOM Change Encoding?

Question

$string = file_get_contents(\'http://example.com\');

if (\'UTF-8\' === mb_detect_encoding($string)) {
    $dom = new DOMDocument();
    // hack to preserve UTF-8 ch         


        

Answer 1

I had to add a utf8 header to get the correct view:

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
