drawrof Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 so, i've a little search engine set up to query a database. however, i have some entries in my db with foreign characters. what can i do to make these foreign characters searchable with regular english characters? for example, someone searches "fur elise" and the query will find "für elise" thanks.

effigy Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Do not double post; I have removed your other. I guess you could set up a cross reference table.
