iconv_mime_decode ( string encoded_header [, int mode [, string charset]])
Returns a decoded MIME field on success, or FALSE if an error occurs during the decoding.
mode determines the behaviour in the event iconv_mime_decode() encounters a malformed MIME header field. You can specify any combination of the following bitmasks.
Table 1. Bitmasks acceptable to iconv_mime_decode()
| Value | Constant | Description |
|---|
| 1 | ICONV_MIME_DECODE_STRICT |
If set, the given header is decoded in full conformance with the standards defined in RFC2047. This option is disabled by default because there are a lot of broken mail user agents that don't follow the specification and don't produce correct MIME headers. |
| 2 | ICONV_MIME_DECODE_CONTINUE_ON_ERROR |
If set, iconv_mime_decode() attempts to continue to process the given header even though an error occurs. |
The optional charset parameter specifies the character set to represent the result by. If omitted, iconv.internal_charset will be used.
Example 1. iconv_mime_decode() example <?php
// This yields "Subject: Prüfung Prüfung"
echo iconv_mime_decode("Subject: =?UTF-8?B?UHLDvGZ1bmcgUHLDvGZ1bmc=?=",
0, "ISO-8859-1");
?> |
