I am using UTF-8 in my HTML and have set my database table’s collation to UTF-8 Unicode. The data I am saving comes from an external source, but when viewing it on the website (in UTF-8) it works out fine.
Now when I store the values from php using an insert query, values like ‘Bearwölf’ misform to ‘Bearwölf’.
How do I get around this? I don’t think there’s many more details to provide, if you think of something please let me know.
Changed the API to give utf 8 encoded strings, problem solved.
