Re: utf8 character show as ???

[Jasper Frumau]

Hi there,

I seem to have sort of the same problem. I am making a Dutch Thai dictionary. I made a table based upon a copy I got somewhere:

CREATE TABLE `words` (
`id` tinyint(4) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`eng` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
`vie` varchar(255) CHARACTER SET utf8 NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1;

And the Thai characters now display correctly in phpmyadmin. But if i go to the dictionary index page (with firefox or explorer)and ask for a thai word which I entered with Thai characters instead of web source code I get ????? as a result!

Any ideas how to remedy this?

Thanx a billion!
