[PHP-DB] French and Spanish Accent Letters

2010-11-10 Thread Ron Piggott
I have a column that is VARCHAR 250. I need it to be able to accept french and spanish accents. The purpose of the column is organization names. The “Collation” default is “latin1_swedish_ci” What do I need to do? Ron The Verse of the Day “Encouragement from God’s Word”

Hi Ron, you should use CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci in your table for a wide option of languages. Example: CREATE TABLE `t_my_table` ( `row_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL, `row_name` varchar(64) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL, ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
