if you want.

PHP level property,

yes.

HTTP level property or

dont know

inherited from the OS default?

the default is inherited from the OS unless something is broken.

I have a module that converts strings between the locale character
encoding and another encoding. Currently setlocale(LC_CTYPE, NULL)
within a script returns 'C' which is to say the locale is not set.

'C' = Posix std locale.

Where do I look?

what do you want to find? ;-)

Thanks,

You just call the setlocale() function in PHP.

How does one PROPERLY set the locale under which PHP scripts run? Is
it a script level property, PHP level property, HTTP level property or
inherited from the OS default?
