How are you determining that you are using UTF-8 charset? I think you want to set everything to UTF-8.. the database, the table (or even finer in case any setting has e.g. a column set to another charset), the script files, the HTML output, the browser, *everything*. Just because e.g. one sets the charset in the browser does not mean that Apache (or whatever webserver you are using) is set to serve that charset. -Govinda -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
