Re: How to use special characters in strings?

Again, emoticons need utf8mb4----that's really utf-8, unfortunately utf8 in MySQL is not full-on utf-8,

And I'd make sure all char* settings are utf8mb4, also the database, the table and the column.

And in PHP after connecting ...

mysqli_set_charset( $conn, 'utf8mb4' );

And of course the web page running the script needs ...

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
