Question

With my code below I convert XML to mySQL and after that I search (from a form) and it returns me the id of the entry that the term was found in.

Through phpmyAdmin

SELECT id FROM products WHERE MATCH (name) AGAINST ('ηλιακές')

I get the correct return.

Through the script I also get the correct results.

But when I go through the search form textbox, I did not get any. Why is that?
I have to say that the DB is utf8_general_ci

Thank you.

search page

<form action="result.php" method="post">
Term: <input type="text" name="term" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>

Answer 1

Maybe setting an header in the result page

<?php header('Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8') ;?>

will help
