I want to store superscript text in mysql (sqlyog). So is it possible?how?
I added 'Game™' text but it displays 'Gameâ„¢' in mysql table. Its html output is perfect becuase I used
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
Before inserting the values you should run this
"SET NAMES utf8" to store special characters.

I am having issues using hebrew with mysql and PHP, i have already tried this:
the db collation has to be utf8_general_ci.
the collation of the table with hebrew has to be utf8_general_ci
in my php connection script i put
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
in my xhtml head tag i put
after selecting the db in the connection script i put
mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
And it is still not working. In phpmyadmin i can see the hebrew characters but when i display them in php all i see is "?????"
If anyone could help me that would be great!
In your html page
Under <head> tage, add <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
At the time of mysql insert use utf8_encode & when show data try to use utf8_decode
My website is replacing an apostrophe (') with a question mark (?) while rendering the page.
See the deal - my kitchen cook's at

It is a simple HTML page written by me which does the following
Connect to MySQL database
Retrieve title
Display
Add this between the <head> tags of your website:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
It should do the trick.
I got it working by changing the php file encoding from utf-8 to iso-8859-1
I used spanish language in my site. when iinserted the character like í,á,é,ó it will insert properly in db,but it cannot display in front-end, it display like this � in front-end
for example :
Insert name : Test teachér in database it inserted correctly but in front it display as
Test teach�r.
i used <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
also but no changes at all.
It has nothing to do with smarty.
Check db charset where you store data and set it to UTF-8 General CI
Check charset of db connection SET NAMES utf8
Check the output of script if it's in UTF you can do it with meta charset, or in headers content-type.
Content-type: text/html; charset="UTF-8"
or
<meta charset="utf-8"> or <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
After these operations you should have proper output.
You can also optionally check if functions that work on strings supports UTF-8.
I'm using Excel to send information to my MySQL database. That contains several 'Ø' character. My database is set to utf8_general_ci and the website to <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
When I use an text field to edit the database all 'Ø' characters are changed to '?' in the text field, how can I prevent this from happening?
Have you set the mysql connection encoding? In php you do it with mysql_set_charset("utf8").
If the data in the database is correct, then you need to ensure that the connection between your php script and the database is also UTF-8 by issuing
In mysqli do
$mysqli->set_charset("utf8")
or in mysql do
mysql_set_charset("utf8")
And ensure that your html is also set to utf-8 by adding this tag to header
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
I'm having some trouble with my page. I have moved my site from a host provider to another one, and now i'm having some problems with non-latin characters, for text that comes from db query and for text that is in html/php file.
For text that comes from db someone suggested me to apply this after db connection:
mysql_query("SET CHARACTER SET utf8");
mysql_query("SET NAMES utf8");
and it did the trick, but, now i'm having the same problem for texts that comes from html/php files: instead of ë or ç appears �
I'm sure that should be e trick someone on the server or somewhere else on the configuration.
Hope that you can help me.
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
i'm using at the header of my file.
You must have this line in your <head> section:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
Is the collation of your database where the data is stored in utf8_general_ci?
Maybe there was a problem while transfering the files.
If you are familiar with Linux, try to fix the broken files on your server with recode
