file_get_contents giving garbage for Russian content

Question

I am trying my best to describe my problem. For a client PC, I am reading a file (Via ::ReadFile) and uploading i tto a PHP server (HTTP upload). I am receiving this string in that PHP via following file code and saving in hard disk:

<?php
// body contains sent data here
    $body = file_get_contents('php://input',FILE_TEXT);
    echo "<script language= 'JavaScript'>alert(' . $body . ');</script>";
        $today = date("dmY-Gis");
        $name = $today . ".log";
        //$body = utf8_encode($body);
        //$body = "\xEF\xBB\xBF".$body;
        $f = fopen($name, "wb");
        fwrite($f, $body);
        fclose($f);
php?>

Now, I have a string sending as follows: выфпвыфп Notepad

But this PHP script is saving it as ???????? Notepad

Seems english strings are captured correctly, but non - English string is not collected

Can any one have idea.

Above two are same problem but none gave any solutions that worked for me.

What encoding is the data sent in and what encoding are you trying to interpret it in? — deceze, Mar 12 '13 at 13:07

The document which I am reading have Unicode, it fine, it is sending currect strings (I saw it from debuggung). But the out puts tring is in ANSII format. I tried to make it utf-8 using //$body = utf8_encode($body); //$body = "\xEF\xBB\xBF".$body; But it won't occured — debdipta Ghosh, Mar 12 '13 at 13:59
