PHP Function chr() and ASP

[guest2013-1]

Hey guys, messing around with PHP and classic ASP

I see in PHP you can:

<?php echo chr(226).chr(130).chr(172) ?>

And get the € symbol

With ASP doing:

<% Response.Write chr(226) & chr(130) & chr(172) %>

Get's me a string of those 3 characters. It appears PHP is somehow adding those together for a symbol? Please get me to understand the difference!

Yep, I agree, a hack

Sticking with ISO characters only for now... until I can figure out a way to do the combining thing in ASP

Check out my blog soon for a JavaScript and classic ASP slug/permalink generator that mymics Wordpress kind of and gets you nice and neat slugs for your permalinks

Well, if you fancy that kind of thing

Will probably write a jQuery plugin as soon as I catch some zzzz's
