Hello, all. I'm going a little crazy with getting some unicode data from MySQL to display properly in a web page, and wondered if you had any ideas. The records are in MySQL (4.1.21) with a utf8_unicode_ci collation. When I view in phpmyadmin, everything looks fine. If I run my query in phpmyadmin, everything still looks fine, I can cut and paste the record into the web page, and it displays fine, but when I grab the data from MySQL it conks out: http://www.ithacalibrary.com/research/unicode_test.php I assume the problem is with my query or the connection, but I'm not sure how I should do it. I've tried explicitly setting the character set like so: SET names = 'utf8_unicodel_ci'; SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8_unicode_ci' But this is voodoo to me--just saw it somewhere on the internets. Am I missing something obvious? Any ideas? Thanks, Andrew
