Multi Language Character Sets

Post by JonJW »

Hi there,

Is there a way to pass any type of language character from a php form and then store it in a mysql database, then subsequently pull that data out and display it on the page.

I can successfully insert the data into the database, however when I try to pull it out, there are issues with french accents etc . . .

I have taken a look around and looked into htmlspecialchars and htmlentities . . . but am not sure if I am along the right lines here.

I need to be able to insert and display any type of character set from english to Turkish right through to Hngarian.

If anyone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

Regards

Jon
