简单的HTML DOM For Parsing生成错误

I am using Simple HTML DOM Class for web-page scrapping. Issue is it generates weird characters against unicode character.

हंगामा है कà¥à¤¯à¥‚ठबरपा / अकबर इलाहाबादी 

against hindi unicode character.

लेकिन इतना तो हुआ कुछ लोग

Its my Hindi text.

When I print screen output it output in same weird characters.

function getDomContent($data) {
    $html = new simple_html_dom();
    $html->load($data);

    foreach ($html->find('table[id=content] li') as $element) {
        $content[] = $element->plaintext;
    }

    return $content;
}

My Curl function

function getContent($url) {
    $timeout = 5;
    $ch = curl_init();
    $user_agent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0';
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $user_agent);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 120);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 120);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 10);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "cookie.txt");
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "cookie.txt");
    $data = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    return $data;
}

$data = getContent($url);
$content = getDomContent($data);
echo '<pre>Array Content: ' . '<br/>';
print_r($content);
die($query);

I solved it by adding header to my page...

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

It solved all issues.

It seems problem with encodification. Try use iconv PHP function.

$text = iconv("current text codification", "UTF-8", $text)

But if you don't know current encoding try set it like global configuration with iconv_set_encoding.

iconv_set_encoding("internal_encoding", "UTF-8");
