We tested inserting some Korean fonts into the database. It |accepted the values but while retriving the values we are not getting the inserted |values, WE do not know weather the values we got are of Korean script or the other. |But the consistency is being maitained in getting the junk values. | I just would like to know weather mySQL supports Korean language, if so is it |storing in form of some ASCII values. Please reply
I have created a multi-lang table for a project (gettext for the entire site) and didn't run int many problems. Chances are your problems will stem form how you are inserting or how you are extracting, rather than how mysql is storing the data. Although most of the asian languages rely on a 16 or 32 bit char set, you should be ok. The issue with mysql you would run into with is sorting, in which case you will need to compile with those char-sets. How are you inserting them and then how are you extracting and rendering the data? --Michael "title too long to type" guy --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
