Hi,

I'm just getting started with php/mysql and I have a big question: how do I
handle the special chars? when I import an excel sheet into my db, all
special chars are displayed wrongly. If a change them to html entities befor
the import, it works, but it's ugly to have all the & and whatnot in the
db. Is there some way i can administrate thise special chars?

also, the function htmlentities() does not work properly - it ignors ö, ä,
etc. 

Does anyone know a manual for that?

Thanks!!!

Simon
