Characters missing from CURL posts

Hi there,

I'm using php 5.1.4 standalone to run some scripts. I have a problem
where I am submitting £ (uk pound) sign as part of an HTTP post to
another server. I am urlencoding the data before adding it as the
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option and when I check the urlencoded string, I can
see the %A3 representing the £ sign in the post. Is there something I
could be doing wrong which is causing this to be stripped before sending
it to the other server?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Andrew
