I think the same thing for words in Portuguese?
In my case, my files contain special characters, words in Portuguese, like this:
, and when it is sent, arrives asé.docé.doc
How do I fix this?
Thanks for help!

I am using ColdFusion 8 on Linux, however, a regular upload, without using the Uploadify, has no problems with special characters.

(I'm French)
Use the html_entity_decode and htmlentities php functions.
In the script, insert a line of code at the beginning like this :
...
$tempFile = $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'];
$targetPath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $_REQUEST['folder'] . '/';
// insert the follow line
$targetFile=html_entity_decode(htmlentities($_FILES['Filedata']['name'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'));
// change $_FILES['Filedata']['name'] by $targetFile in the follow line
$targetFile = str_replace('//','/',$targetPath) . $targetFile;

(I'm Bulgarian, so I use Cyrillic alphabetic and v.2.1.4 of uploadify).
To upload files that contain cyrillic charachers I have to use......in my uploadify.php.
$tempFile =$_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'];
$targetFile = iconv("UTF-8","WINDOWS-1251",$_FILES['Filedata']['name']);
$targetFile = str_replace('//','/',$targetPath) . $targetFile;
move_uploaded_file($tempFile,$targetFile);
......
If you use other charachters like:"ASCII", "Windows-1252", "ISO-8859-15", "ISO-8859-1", "ISO-8859-6", "CP1256", you can change "WINDOWS-1251" with one of them.
I also go to my.ini file, because I use Apache server in xampp\mysql folder under Windows. There I add:# The MySQL server
[mysqld]
character-set-server=utf8
collation-server=utf8_general_ci
After you have to reset appache server or restart PC. -
