Issue Summary

It seems utf characters are not supported.

If you lookup index.hu a foreign domain for example, accented characters are broken.

Cheers,

Since the whois does not mandate a specific encoding this is a bit tricky. However the attached patch introduces utf8_encode() in a number of places.

It seems to do the trick for index.hu, but it screws up index.cn.

Any ideas would be welcome.

Just committed a modified version of this patch, which includes a distinction for .hu domains.

The 4.2.0 version of the phpwhois library has a fix for the encoding of .hu domains. I have therefore removed the in #2 mentioned distinction from CVS.
