I am using MySql/PHP to produce an Xml doc that's then used to populate my map. Much of this is based on examples from this page (http://code.google.com/support/bin/answer.py? answer=65622&topic=11369) and there's an intriguing line that says:
"Note: If your database contains international characters or you otherwise need to force UTF-8 output, you can use utf8_encode on the outputted data." I'm pretty sure I need to do this but there are no examples of where exactly I put this in my map to make it work. Currently, I end up with questionmarks where there should be Japanese text, or I get no markers at all. I'm using the "jname" variable in the XML file. Both the XML file and the map are here: Xml: www.onsenjapan.net/index.new2.php Map: www.onsenjapan.net/ralphonsen.php (Currently, Kurokawa (黒川) is the only item in the database with a jname...but you can see that ?? is all that shows up in the map sidebar.) As always, any help would be hugely appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
