hotmert Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Whenever I make changes to my SQL database i get this symbol � appearing in my "price" field in front of the currency symbol. Sometime its �£5 sometime it's �5 and some times I get a capital A with mark above it.

2-d Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 What changes are you making to the database to cause this? That question mark symbol usually means you are tyring to display a character that is not valid in the character set you are using. What character set are you using? Generally, its a good idea to stick to utf-8 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/239767-what-is-thiswhy-do-i-get-it-and-how-do-stop-it-happening/#findComment-1231667 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was set to latin_swedish_ci Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/239767-what-is-thiswhy-do-i-get-it-and-how-do-stop-it-happening/#findComment-1231670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
