mattkenefick Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I have a table setup in MySQL to contain different copy versions of this page. It's collation is "utf8_general_ci" and the type is "text". Will this be able to store Chinese Simplified/Traditional, Arabic, etc characters? Not necessarily for Americans to view, but for their own country's viewing. So if I was in China, wrote on the Chinese keyboard and stored it.. Then refreshed my screen, I'd be able to see it? or would the Collation mess it all up? Thanks a ton! And this is very very urgent.

fenway Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 UTF-8 can store anything... just make sure that your editor / server-side script / etc. know about this too.
