PHP Output Showing Little Black Diamonds With a Question Mark

Issues with Cyrillic character set in PHP (Black Diamonds & question marks)

I managed to resolve this by using mb_convert_encoding by adding the following line :

$new_data = mb_convert_encoding($data, "utf-8", "Windows-1251");

with the resulting code as :

<html>
<?php
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$server = "ftp://ftp.mysite.com"
$remoteFile = "test.txt";
$conn = ftp_connect($server);
if (@ftp_login($conn, $username, $password)) {
    echo "";
    } 
else {
    echo "";
    }
ob_start();
ftp_get($conn, 'php://output', $remoteFile, FTP_ASCII);
$data = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
ftp_close($conn); 
$new_data = mb_convert_encoding($data, "utf-8", "Windows-1251");
echo $data;
?>
</html>

Hope this helps someone...

Wordpress question mark black diamonds

I has a similar problem;

In wp-config.php, the Database Charset was empty, looking like this:

DB_CHARSET', ''

Therefore, I included the charset inside it:

DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'

Afterwards, I deactivated and activated the theme, cleared the cache (using WP Super Cache) and the issue fixed.

php mysqli populated select has diamond question marks in it?

To display an HTML page correctly, a web browser must know which character set (character encoding) to use.

This is specified in the tag:

For HTML4:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1">

For HTML5:
<meta charset="UTF-8">

Diamonds with question marks

This is a problem with your character encoding scheme.

I would recommend reading this article, where (close to the bottom of it), he shows you why you get that little diamond with question marks.
