I was having the same problem on win2k mx 6.1 mysql version 3.xxx whatever
it was, if I recall the webserver was IIS but it was the same problems you
described... accents converted to ? . I had to resort to setting all the
encodings to iso-8859-1. I noticed though that accented characters that
were embedded in my .cfm templates who were not from the database worked
fine. It was only the ones in the DB..., which I thought was weird. But
setting cfprocessing, cfcontent and encoding forms to use iso-8859-1 did the
trick for me as well.
So far, getting accents to work has been my number one issue with cfmx 6 and
6.1

Finally,
It had to do with MySQL's encoding, 3.23.58 not being compatible with
UTF-8.... from what I found.
So I'm forcing CFMX to use iso-8859-1.
Now my pages come out as expected.
I have one question if anyone.... would there be any draw backs to doing
this?
Thanks,
Yves

Hello,
I've been racking my brain over this for a little bit...
I'm running CFMX 6.1, Apache 2.0.48 and MySQL 3.23.58.
I'm a bit confused at this behavior... I converted an access db to mysql
using a conversion tool. I log in to webmin, look at the data in my
tables,
everything looks fine. Characters such as "é,É,è".. all display as they
should.
When I view a page with this same data through my webserver (apache), all
the french characters are messed up.
Any ideas??
Thanks,
Yves
