in cake 1.1 I usually add
to my app_model.php for the project
class AppModel extends Model {
function __construct($id = null, $table = null, $ds = null)
{
parent::__construct($id, $table, $ds);
if (!defined('MYSQL_SET_NAMES_UTF8') && $this->useTable!==false)
{
$this->execute("SET NAMES 'UTF8'");
define('MYSQL_SET_NAMES_UTF8', true);
}
}
}
I can't remember where I got this probably from AD6 or M.I.
