[turba] Problem with French Characters

Hello Chuck, Illan and everybody,


This has been asked on this list a number of times, but AFAIK hasn't
been solved.
My experience is that 'encoding' => 'utf8' doesn't do the trick. It will
help read special chars correctly, but not write!
I've tried several versions of Turba/Horde and php.


------------------------
A question to everybody on this list:
Has anybody been able to add entries to ldap with characters like
éèêöüàäå?
------------------------


If so what's the trick? What version of php, Horde and Turba are you
using? Does it have anything to do with php.ini?

It would be great if this could be solved, it's a big annoyance for us
in countries not speaking english.
