Post by raquel »

Hi, people,

I´m requesting information from a database using PHP. The database is MSSQLServer. When i peform a query, the results are in another language, inapropriate for my country. So, i need set the charset type to iso-8859-1, who supports latin characteres.

I´m brazilian, sorry for my poor english ...

Someone could help me, please?
