Any charset expert here?

Plenty, I suspect. I find the best thing to wake me from my charset induced slumbers is my favourite Char Set Editor[^]
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Well, no reason to be lonely in Hell: after all, that's where the party is ! So, by all means, come on down heah to Queue-A, join the rest of us demons, imps, golems, succubi and incubii, ifrit, djinn, etc.: we got the sulfur winds blowing strong 24/7, no shortage of piping-hot junk-food, and you can be sure everything is hellaciously democratic because the damned torture their torturers just as skilfully as the torturers torment the damned ! We got low-down down-payments, low interest rates with fiendish balloon payments, low survival rates, and a rating system that can be whipped, but not beat. Five minutes before the exam; homework undone; hung-over, addled, high ... don't worry: we got a plan for you ! Cost of a question: nanoseconds of your time; price of an answer: willing suspension of dis-belief. :) cheers, Bill

I see that you got a bit too deep in the purgatory...There is a weekend in Thailand?
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Sounds like you're using a MySQL back-end. It also sounds like you're confusing the difference between a charset and a collation. The former is to represent characters on screen, the latter is for ordering and sorting based on the charset you've chosen. You cannot set a charset to a collation. Also, make sure your front-end and back-end charsets match. http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_charset.asp[^]

One thing you have to consider is that earlier versions of Windows won't work well with UTF-8 with BOMs, and more recent versions won't work well with UTF-8 without BOMs. The most obvious thing to do is just smile vacantly, until they come to take you away.
