random1 Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I've created a MySQL database that support UTF-8 for foreign languages (such as Japanese). It uses: InnoDB storage engine UTF-8 character set utf8_general_ci collation When you use the 'utf8_general_ci' collation in MySQL what does the 'ci' part of 'utf8_general_ci' imply, I've heard that it's "Case Insensitive" but what impact does that make? The purpose for why I'm currently using this collation is for supporting languages like: German, Korean, Japanese, German etc..

fenway Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Are you really asking us what "case-insensitive" means? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/199125-mysql-and-collations/#findComment-1047059 Share on other sites More sharing options...
