So its just the Japanese titles which aren't working? The Greek and Cyrillic looked ok to me. If that's the case then the causes which occur to me would be:
1. The web browser doesn't have a Japanese font (I don't know if I have one or not so I can't check that) 2. Japanese characters are longer than 3 bytes long in utf8 (again I don't know if that's the case or not). If they are then according the following link mysql only supports up to 3 byte long utf8 characters. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Charset-Unicode.html > I am inserting data into mySQL via this script: > http://www.feedsfarm.com/tmp.phps > > I've set default-character-set=utf8 > > When I output the data to the browser (see: > http://www.feedsfarm.com/tmp.php) it displays perfectly in the UTF-8 char > set. > > And I am certain libxml converts ANY encoding to UTF-8 when traversing and > XML file thru DOM. > > Cheers, > - Martin > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 15 January 2005 20:47 > To: mysql@lists.mysql.com > Subject: Re: MySQL 4.1.8 and storing east characters > > How are you inserting the data into mysql?
