I want to allow users of a website to enter either Chinese, Japanese or Korean into a form and have it saved to a database. Then, I want the text retrieved and redisplayed for editting at a later time. This seems complicated. Even partial information would be appreciated. 1) What do I need to do within the form setup or javascript validation to be able to submit the text. a) can I just indicate a broad character set such as unicode, UTF-16, UTF-8 or ISO-10646? b) do I need to set enctype="multipart/form-data" c) can anyone tell me whether there are issues dealing with mixed character sets? 2) What do I need in PHP to make sure I store, retrieve and display correctly within form texareas and within HTML? Is there any MIME to HTML to Unicode conversion involved? 3) Is there another mature, well-supported, well-documented open-source tool I should use instead?
