Hi,

do you set in phpMyAdmin on the main page the collation to latin1 [1]?

Best regards,
Jan

Betreff: [Toolserver-l] phpMyAdmin latin1 display

I have a question about something that's always annoyed me (not actually a 
problem so not worthy of a JIRA request IMO).

My MyISAM tables are collated as latin1_swedish_ci. As far as usage in my HTML 
reports goes, everything works great, so I'm happy with this setup.

However, if I browse one of these tables in phpMyAdmin, (and under the very 
unnoticeable +Options link in the browse view, uncheck "Show binary contents as 
HEX") I don't get the proper display of values.

For instance a table whose column is stored as

dab_title varchar(255) binary NOT NULL default ''

will display as

Jarosław_Dąbrowski

when I want

Jarosław Dąbrowski

and indeed that's what I get when I display it in a report. Again, not a 
problem, but I was wondering if anyone knows an easy way to get phpMyAdmin to 
display the contents properly. 

Thanks,
Jason
