setlocale() function interferes with DOMPDF
Sem Kurtulus
I am using DOMPDF on an internationalized code and the page that
generates the html output and outputs the PDF also calls the setlocale
function to determine which language to load and if this function gets
called on the page, the PDF does not get generated.
I have found the following about it but this certainly does not help.
(not even sure if it is related)
http://code.google.com/p/dompdf/issues/detail?id=20
Any idea why this is happening? And how do I fix it?
Thank you

What do you mean when you say the PDF does not get generated? Do you get any errors? A blank page? A corrupted PDF?

I am using the latest greatest of the dompdf. Below is the condensed
version of the code i am executing. When this code is called, it
should be prompting me to open the PDF file but it does nothing. But
the moment i remove the setlocale line, it works.
Is this a dompdf issue or a general PHP problem? Since nothing is happening you're probably hitting a fatal error somewhere. Have you checked your error log or enabled errors to the browser (ini_set('display_errors',TRUE);) to see if PHP is throwing an error?

I did print out the error and here it is;
Fatal error: Interface 'IteratorAggregate' not found in
/home2/foreuni4/public_html/buyuk/dompdf/include/frame.cls.php on line
955
Thoughts?
Thanks

Thank you for the guidance. The thing is that if you look at my code
below, I dont even have any turkish characters entered at this time.
just the inlcude that spits out that error.
Thoughts?

It's not an ideal solution, but until the problem is fixed in PHP there aren't a lot of options. Also, since the issue is related to a bug in PHP we may very well build in a work-around for the next release. We already do some locale adjustment during processing, so this isn't out of the question.

Please let me know if you guys develop something for this, i have a
feeling this is a very common use and i am suprised that PHP dev is
not doing anything about it...
in the meantime, i will set locale back to english.
