$_SERVER["AUTH_USER"] lower case b's?!?

[kid_code]

I use a mySQL db to keep track of users using a PHP web/app and when using $_SERVER["AUTH_USER"], I get a small square character inplace of lowercase b's in the username, any solutions/ideas?

Notes:
Windows 2003 Forest
PHP 5.0.5

Even when you echo $_SERVER["AUTH_USER"]?

It seems to be a mac :mad: issue. The users were switched over to WinXP and now it records their usernames without any issues. Ironically, the users names that still had macs here started with a lower case 'b' in AD.

Try explicitly setting the document charset.
