This seems backwards from what I expected: mysql> select convert(0xE29C94 using latin1), convert(0xE29C94 using utf8) \G *************************** 1. row *************************** convert(0xE29C94 using latin1): ✔ convert(0xE29C94 using utf8): ? 1 row in set (0.00 sec) I expected the second one to print the check mark and the first one to have the problem because there is no heavy check mark in latin1. What am I missing, why is it printing out the correct value "using latin1" but not "using utf8" ? ...Todd -- Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live. -- Martin Golding -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
