I've created a website which shows the files and directories of a specific folder(named documents). The user can navigate through directories and if he choose a file (pdf doc etc) it downloads it. The problem is that it works in all browsers but specifically in safari if the user chooses a file (pdf doc etc) it won't download it and a new window will pop saying for example:
The requested URL /root/documents/2013-01-13 1η Έκτακτη - 1η ΕΣ/Î Ïακτικά 1ης Εκτακτης Γ.Σ. TÎœ.ΠΛΗΡΟΦΟΡΙΚΗΣ ΚΑΙ ΤΗΛΕΠΙΚΟΙÎΩÎΙΩÎ.doc was not found on this server.
The weird letters suppose to be greek. I'm trying to figure out why and the fact that it hapens only in safari seems really weird to me. Here is the code that is responsible for the content of the links. I have put a big arrow as a comment above the code that's responsible for the links of files (it's inside "if"). Any idea would be really helpful.
<?php
function convert_to( $source ){
$encoding = mb_detect_encoding( $source, "auto" );
if ($encoding !== 'UTF-8'){
return mb_convert_encoding( $source, 'UTF-8','UTF-8');
}
else {
return $source;
}
}

You are converting from UTF-8 encoding to UTF-8 encoding. As result safari seems to get url in unsupported encoding which seems not to handle properly.
Try:
if ($encoding !== 'UTF-8'){
return mb_convert_encoding( $source, 'UTF-8','UTF-8,ISO-8859-7 ');
}
UPDATE
I did some additional testing and it seems that mb_detect_encoding() always returns UTF-8 if "auto" is specified as attribute or no second attribute is passed. I solved this by doing that like below, but can't fully test it without the actual files and paths. Try if it works this way:
function convert_to( $source ){
$encoding = mb_detect_encoding( $source, "Windows-1253,ISO-8859-7,UTF-8" );
if ($encoding !== 'UTF-8'){
return mb_convert_encoding( $source, 'utf-8','Windows-1253,ISO-8859-7,UTF-8');
}
else {
return $source;
}
}
