I am working on a project where I need to upload csv to databse, but here the problem is the file is encoded in the unknown format, so I am unable to upload the file to the database.

I tried many ways like mb_detect_encoding and tried to convert into UTF-8. but not succeed. Can anyone try to help me to solve this problem?

      Hi, Ashok. I can help with this. Please give me a test file, or better yet a link to a set of test files. UTF-8 is self-evident, and BOM is easy to remove. I wrote an article about this a few years ago.

      My email is Ray.Paseur [at] Gmail if you want to send me a link to the test data. If you send me an email, I will send you links to my articles and presentation deck. Best regards, Ray

        based on this request im working on a package that can scan xx content (emails / files / websites) and detect nom bom content. Content that could display unsupported chars on any content. Developers will be able to add scanning mechanisms and let the engine detect non bom chars in email / csv / files / db / etc etc .. and those adapters could fix the content. It's meganism will be a bit like flysystem for the filesystem.
