Hi Kristian, thanks for the suggestions. Alas neither seemed to have any effect. (Characters are still displaying incorrectly http://yfrog.com/2tld9p even though they are correct in the database http://yfrog.com/0kr2jp) That said, I was not quite sure where to put the $KCODE = 'u' in my app. I tried it at the start of the init.rb file (it's a Merb app) Cheers, George
