This is php code for input:

I can't find option to fix UTF-8 for this php: 

<?php
if (isset($_POST['myname'])){
$name = $_POST['myname'];
$handle = fopen('names.csv', 'a');
fwrite($handle, $name."\n");
fclose($handle); }

?>

Html:

If it is UFT-8 decoding issue, you can follow links in the comments section. In my case,I was generating .cvs file in laravel framework, I got that Issue. I just added the Following code before fwrite, my problem was solved.

You can try Following before:

ob_end_clean();
ob_start();
fwrite($handle, $name."\n");
fclose($handle);

Which "Clean (erase) the output buffer and turn off output buffering" as per the Link

seems that your encoding is wrong. you can convert it by using iconv or utf-encode on $name.

for broken utf8-strings, have a look at ForceUTF8

  • his/her problem is wrong encoding (as **clearly** shown in the example) and the functions given in my answer would solve that. adding legit questions should not be a problem! so it INDEED IS an answer. I edited it to make it clear. If you still not accept it...thanks for not understanding -.- – meistermuh Mar 28 '18 at 12:50
