The version of apache is 2.2.21. Also, I use PHP 5.3.8 with it.

Will try do some testing this afternoon, but the documentation at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.1/mod/core.html mentions that charset needs to be IANA listed from http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets

The IANA charset name seems to be Shift_JIS not shift_jis - perhaps this will make a difference?

I re-tested this issue and get a result.
When I use "normal" html format and extension(like ".htm"), the directive works correct. The problem occur in "PHP" format(use ".php" extension).

By the way, when I used apache 2.0.x with PHP 4.x.x, there were no problem. Perhaps, a factor comes from apache or PHP's specification change. Or maybe I missed my configuration.

One of the solution is use UTF-8 encoding in .php file. But I still continue to look into this issue.

regards.

Looking at http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum88/11331.htm what you describe seems to be working as designed.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.default-charset might do what you want for the PHP side of things

I got it!
In my php.ini, I set 'default-charset' directive to 'utf-8' the other day.
I changed it to be empty, then I tried to view .php files from web browser again. It seemed with no problem.
All process works fine now!

Thanks a lot for your advice.

Regards.
