This has got something to do with encoding... install thai characters on your computer, and then try to view the data in your browser

Not in your program, but in your browser or operating system... you need a language pack that understands thai characters, and renders them correctly on the screen.

The problem is your local machine does not support the thai language...

Install the thai language in your control panel...

control panel >> fonts (folder) >> check whether the thai language is there?....

else install. and check it out...

Thanks
JOE
