So , i think you already have this issue since you reached this page , or you are simply browsing through the blog pages , either way here is the fix :
<?php define('ABPATH', dirname(__file__) . '/'); //do not modify this $fp = fopen(ABPATH."writeto.txt", "a+"); # Now UTF-8 - Add byte order mark fwrite($fp, pack("CCC",0xef,0xbb,0xbf)); fwrite($fp, "Text to be encoded goes here make sure you place those 'chinese' , 'strange chars' \n"); fclose($fp); ?>
