I'm trying to send Hebrew content through to show up on phpmyadmin. English letters go through perfectly, but Hebrew gives me something like this: חן דו×ק.
phpmyadmin collation is set on utf8_unicode_ci (Also tried utf8_general_ci). How can I solve it?
This is my code:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
$servername = "//";
$username = "//";
$password = "//";
$dbname = "//";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "INSERT INTO nigunim (name, time, day)
VALUES ('בדיקה', 'בדיקה', 'בדיקה')";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
}
$conn->close();
?>
Finally fixed by creating a new table and then adding mysql_set_charset("UTF8", $conn); along with making sure collation is set to utf8_general_ci.

on line 1 of my page i required the connection file before going on to write my code. at this point i think it is supposed to work but can not figure out why it didn't. please some one who knows better help me.
Can you help me with a sample PHP code for inserting data into mysql database using PHP, mysqli?
Thank you again in advance.
You can use this code for insert data to mysql DB using php and mysqli
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "myDB";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "INSERT INTO MyGuests (firstname, lastname, email)
VALUES ('John', 'Doe', 'john#example.com')";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
}
$conn->close();
?>
I'm new to PHP and MYSQL, and I have what I think is going to be a relatively easy question.
My objective is to show one image (a green flashing light) when the database is connected, and display another image (a red flashing light) when there is no database connection.
I imagine it should be a simple variation on this:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
But if I attempt to add an image to where it echos "Connected successfully" I receive an error.
I'm attempting to add the image like this:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("<img src="Red_Light.gif" style="width:10px;height:10px;"> " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "<img src="Green_Light.gif" style="width:10px;height:10px;">";
?>
I probably have the completely wrong syntax but any help is appreciated.
Many thanks,
Leif
You can use Janno answer or you may use this (by changing " to ':-
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("<img src='Red_Light.gif' style='width:10px;height:10px;'> " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "<img src='Green_Light.gif' style='width:10px;height:10px;'>";
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("<img src=\"Red_Light.gif\" style=\"width:10px;height:10px;\"> " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "<img src=\"Green_Light.gif\" style=\"width:10px;height:10px;\">";
Whole problem seems to be related to not escaping the quote marks.
So, i got this code:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "**";
$password = "**";
$dbname = "TestDB";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password,$dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully<br>";
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$sql = "INSERT INTO testdata (id,address,count) VALUES (DEFAULT,'$ip',1) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE count=count+1";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo "New record created successfully<br>";
} else {
echo "Error: " ;
}
$conn->close();
?>
With this code ip-addresses of customers are saved and it should increase count by 1 every time they return to the website. When i visit database.php directly it works like it should in every browser, but when i call the php-file via the index.html-page it counts up twice (most of the times, not always) in Mozilla, other browsers no problem, the code in html-file:
<img style="display: none;" src="http://servername/database.php?">
Anyone know why? Please help, i'm really stuck here
In my .html document where the form is i have
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
in the .php file where i connect to the database i tried with
mysql_set_charset('utf8');
// and
// <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
and this:
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
The database rows are with Collation: utf8_unicode_ci and charset utf8
So my issue is that when i send the code from the html form through the php i see this in my database: ИзбереÑ
Here's the .php document code:
<?php
// header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf8');
// mysql_set_charset('utf8_unicode_ci');
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$dbname = "dbname";
$name = $_POST['name'];
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// mysql_set_charset('utf8');
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "INSERT INTO oglasi (Name)
VALUES ('$name')";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo "";
} else {
echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
}
$conn->close();
// mysql_set_charset('utf8');
?>
PROCEDURAL:
mysqli_set_charset(connection,charset);
$con=mysqli_connect("localhost","my_user","my_password","my_db");
mysqli_set_charset($con,"utf8");
OOP:
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "test");
/* change character set to utf8 */
if (!$mysqli->set_charset("utf8")) {
printf("Error loading character set utf8: %s\n", $mysqli->error);
exit();
} else {
printf("Current character set: %s\n", $mysqli->character_set_name());
}
before your execute your insert query, you should run this:
$conn->query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
I did all changes as the answer instructed in
this post
in order to be able to print hebrew strings coming from the database but didnt work.
this is my php code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
$servername = "127.0.0.1";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$dbname = "dbName";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users";
$result = $conn->query($sql);
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
// output data of each row
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo "id: " . $row["id"]. " - Name: " . $row["name"]. " - Score: " . $row["score"]. "<br>";
}
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
$conn->close();
?>
</body>
</html>
every thing works accept that insted of the hebrew strings i only see question marks (???).
any idea why??
Set the Browser's Character Settings to Hebrew.
FireFox:Tools=>Options=>Content=>Advanced=>Fallback Character Encoding = Hebrew
Google Chrome: Menu=>Settings=>Show Advanced Settings=>Language and input settings
UPDATE:
When you save the text first recode the text.
Try using GNU Recode?
$text = mysqli_real_escape_string(recode_string(characterSet,$text));
Where characterSet complies with RFC-1345, e.g. 'latin1'
Valid Character sets: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1345.html
