Hi, I'm using PHP MyAdmin to backup my MySQL database. The database is of type InnoDB and encoding used is utf8_unicode_ci. The variables are set as follows :
*MySQL connection collation: **utf8_unicode_ci* *MySQL charset: **UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)* *character set client: utf8* *character set connection: utf8* *character set results: utf8* *collation connection: **utf8_unicode_ci* The problem I have is that the foreign characters like ăÿć etc are being backed up as scrambled non-readable characters. Any ideas why this is happening ?? Are there any other variables I need to check/set ? Cheers Neil
