Hi,

Have you tried just putting greek characters directly in the page?  That way you can 
at least find out if the browser is at fault.  Then try something like:

<?= "some greek characters" ?>

to rule out whether it's PHP.  It's probably not MySQL if you can see them when just 
using the command-line client...
