anatak Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Hello,I am trying to input japanese text into a mysql database.I use Phpmyadmin to copy paste japanese text in the database.I copy into a TEXT field. No matter what charset I try to use the text comes back as gibberish.In another table I have text fields with mixed english and japanese text.this text field is filled by a php script that writes the php string into the database.with this text field I do not have the problem.Does anybody know how to input japanese text directly into the db ?I am getting more confused by the minute here.thank youanatak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenway Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 It's all a matter of whether or not the input terminal supports non-ASCII characters, how how PHPMyAdmin deals with the TEXT field. Obviously, a script suffers from none of these problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
