Greetings.
I'm trying to copy & paste some data from a web page into MySQL ( and
yes it's our data ). I'm getting problems with characters such as
quotes, dollar / euro signs, etc, that won't import - I get symbols and
stuff instead.
If I right-click on the web page and select 'View Page Info', the dialog
that appears tells me that the web page is using:
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso8859-1
I've searched on 8859-1 and it's 'Latin'. My MySQL ( 4.1.14 ) table was
using the 'default' character set. I've had a look at the list of
options in MySQL-Administrator, and there's no 'Latin' or 8859-1. I've
got an 8859-2, so I tried that ... no luck. I've also tried using
MySQL-Query-Browser, and my own home-grown Perl Gtk2 front-end to the
tables - both produce exactly the same results.
I'm using the latest version of Query Browser, and with my home-grown
effort, I'm using DBD-mysql-2.9007, compiled against
mysql-5.0.something. I've got gtk+-2.8.6.
Anyone got any ideas? Is this a Gtk2 problem ( Query Browser and my app
are using Gtk2 ), or is it a driver issue, or a table issue?
