Certain Special Characters No Longer Working


Shadow Jolteon

Recommended Posts

Hello there. =)

 

Earlier today I needed to get Japanese characters working when entering and displaying text from the database in PHP... I used the instructions here to do so, and it works great. Then I discovered a problem with this: A lot of special characters that were working before (such as the accented é) are now showing up as random characters. I'm not quite sure how to go about fixing this, so I can have both those characters and the Japanese characters...

 

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. =)

 

Edit: Also, it seems to only happen when those characters are submitted to the database using PHP. If I enter them directly through phpMyAdmin, they show up just fine when displayed using PHP..

Yes, I'm certain that's correct. Just checked to make sure. =)

 

Also, not sure if you caught the edit in my post or not (since I edited it right before you posted):

Thanks!

Nope, that doesn't seem to work, either.. =/

 

I've noticed that in certain places it seems to work fine, while in others (of course, the ones I really need it working at), it does not.. I've looked at a few different areas where it is and is not working and don't see any difference in how they are submitted..
