hi,

i have developed a web application using ASP.NET and MySQL 5.0. i am able to store arabic text in the database but when i retrieve the same text and display it on the web form, all i get it question marks. i have tried to change the column charset to utf8 but still i face the same problem. the default encoding in my xml file of the web form and Web.config is utf-8, i have changed both of them to windows-1256 but still there is no change.

i have tried to change the encoding in IE to Arabic(Windows) and Unicode(UTF-8) too but the question marks are still there. i can read arabic text from my other web project in which i am using access as the backend, so i dont think there is some problem with IE.

so can anyone please tell me what i have to do to read arabic values from MySQL database?

ur help will be appreciated.

Regards,

Sana
