Hi,

I've written up a guide on how to use MySQL with UTF-8: http://www.bluetwanger.de/blog/2006/...uestion-marks/ . You may find it useful. Character set problems are a constant issue in the MySQL developer community.

if any readers of this interesting and useful article would like to get more information on character sets and collation, they can have a look at this article:

hopefully it will also be of some use.
