khoopes Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hello, I will try to make this as quick as possible, I am redisigning our company website moving from one template to another, in conjuction with this I am moving servers upgradign from php 4 to 5 and mysql 4 to 5 ect. anyhow, the data is going to stay the same, we publish alot of articles adn thigns and all that is the same. my issue ist hat in the database there are all sorts of weird characters, like "“" they exist in both the old and new database. in the old one when php echos them out it looks fine that one i gave as an example should be a double quote. but in the new site the same mysql data comes out as the weird characters. now just as a test, i created a short script that just echos out that string, and even with the new template (i thought it might be some issue with that) it comes out fine on both servers, but still when I try to pull the same data from mysql and then have php echo it out, it comes out funny like that so I am thinking maybe there is some issue with out mysql talks to php or somthing, any ideas? if you need any more infor just let me know, thanks in advance Kevin Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/89757-character-set-issue/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
