Portuguese characters

Post by mariolopes »

Hi
When i want to update, insert my database i can't use portuguese characters like ç or ã . For example if i want to save calção de banho in my database i save only cal
Any ideas? I use the datagrid script found at phpclasses.org found at http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/3426.html
Thank you

Solved
I changed the character set to ISO 8859-1 and everything works fine now

did you change that on your mysql connection or on your table fields or on your html charset tag?

and won't you still have issues with other characters now?
