Hello all. I am working with MySQL 4.0. I have a requirement to create a data-driven Web page to display Chinese text from a MySQL table. I'm completely new to this, can someone tell me exactly what I need to do to make this happen?
1. For example, how do I insert the Chinese text from my source (a Word doc) into a MySQL table without corrupting it? When I try copying and pasting it into the mysql client command-line, the data gets trashed. 2. Once it's in, how do I get it back out into my application without corrupting it? I'm using PHP 4.3 for the Web site. 3. If I need to make changes to the data from the command-line client, how can I do it, especially if the query involves using a Chinese-language string? For example, "update langdata set menutitle='SOME_MENU_TITLE_IN_CHINESE' where menutitle='SOME_OLD_MENU_TITLE_IN_CHINESE'" Looked at the online manual but am sorry to say it didn't really help much. I tried starting the server with --character-set=big5 but it didn't seem to make much difference... Thanks!
