Mgccl Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 First I have to chose between ucs2 or utf8 which one is better at storing different languages? and what's good about one of them and not the other? Then, should I use the general_ci or bin? what's the difference? thx in advance.

fenway Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Depends which language -- UTF-8 is probably the most ideal choice, but multi-byte characters are annoying to deal with.
