mb_encode_mimeheader — Encode string for MIME header
Description
Encodes a given string str by the MIME header encoding scheme.
Parameters
- str
-
The string being encoded.
- charset
-
charset specifies the name of the character set in which str is represented in. The default value is determined by the current NLS setting (mbstring.language).
- transfer_encoding
-
transfer_encoding specifies the scheme of MIME encoding. It should be either "B" (Base64) or "Q" (Quoted-Printable). Falls back to "B" if not given.
- linefeed
-
linefeed specifies the EOL (end-of-line) marker with which mb_encode_mimeheader() performs line-folding (a » RFC term, the act of breaking a line longer than a certain length into multiple lines. The length is currently hard-coded to 74 characters). Falls back to "\r\n" (CRLF) if not given.
- indent
-
Return Values
A converted version of the string represented in ASCII.
ChangeLog
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 5.0.0 | The indent parameter was added. |
Examples
Example #1 mb_encode_mimeheader() example
<?php
$name = ""; // kanji
$mbox = "kru";
$doma = "gtinn.mon";
$addr = mb_encode_mimeheader($name, "UTF-7", "Q") . " <" . $mbox . "@" . $doma . ">";
echo $addr;
?>
Notes
Note: This function isn't designed to break lines at higher-level contextual break points (word boundaries, etc.). This behaviour may clutter up the original string with unexpected spaces.
